Hello to all

Recommended Posts

Hello, Tao Bums.  I am a writer from Memphis, Tennessee.  My long-time interest in Buddhism has slowly caved in to an ongoing and somewhat impassioned desire to learn more about Chinese belief systems.  I've been studying and reading and about all I can say at this point is that I have yet to come across anything in later (Zhuangzi vintage) Taoism that doesn't feel entirely right.  Perhaps most of all is Zhuangzi's statement that laughter and humor are to be consider near-sacred.  This, I think, sealed the deal for me.

 

Hoping to learn lots, enjoy making friends, and seeing what happens.

Hello Dave, and welcome to the forums!

 

Your membership is approved, and thank you for the nice intro :-)

 

Please take the time to read the two posts pinned at the top of this Welcome page and take a look at the forum terms and rules. This covers all you need to know when getting started.

 

For the first week you will be restricted to ten posts per day but after that you can post as much as you like. Also, until you’ve posted fifteen times in the forums, you’ll be a “Junior Bum” with somewhat restricted access and will be allowed only two private messages per day.

 

Good luck in your pursuits and best wishes to you,

 

SC and the TDB team
