from Hans-Georg Moeller
from Do Easy
  • Doing easy is kinda like the hacker stance, SB version. Getting things done with minimal effort. Also maybe is just Taoism translated to the idiom of modern life, with its furniture and toothpaste tubes.
from Martin Seligman
  • "Taoism is extremely passive" – true enough.
from Weird Studies/Request List
from Deleuze/Bergsonism
  • So these two poles have every difference between them, yet are foundationally the same, somehow. OK. ☯
from unus mundus
  • So this is just a fancy Jungian mystipoo way to say monism? That's no so bad, "monism" sort of implies that we know what the one underlying substance is, a weird Latin phrase emphasizes that underlying level is unknowable. See Taoism I guess.
from Trying not to Try
  • book by Edward Slingerland. An examination of Wu Wei, contextualizing it within the space of Chinese philosophy (Confucianism, Moism as well as Taoism) and connecting it to neuroscience concepts, specifically the distinction between hot and cold cognition, aka System 1/2.
from Hakim Bey
  • Does Taoism have a "metaphysics"?....Well, yes and no...Chuang Tzu not only has no metaphysics, he actually condemns and derides metaphysics. Supernaturalism and materialism both appear equally funny to him. His only cosmogonic principle is "chaos". Oddly enough the only philosophical tool he uses is logic - although it is the logic of dream. He makes no mention of divine principle, of the purpose of being, or personal immortality. He is beyond Good and Evil, sneers at ethics, and even makes fun of yoga.
