gutsy or gutted like images in a ching throw all returns to way

Nice post - Yes, Thoth, maybe like appreciating Hindu mythology or the King James take on it all, and thinking there must be another way but not wanting to abandon a way faithfully pursued? Why not go with the tao, abandon nothing of value, and accept all possibility? Knowledge - belief - faith...? Any differences to your way of thinking? Confusion that I have known has come through lack of definition on these points - bit of a koan for the Western head. Always enjoy your posts - TM
