  4. Greetings

    I have been a lurker for quite a few months. I see a nice stability here so I decided to join. I used to think Buddhism expressed what I felt about the world, but I found more and more over the years those who speak of the Dao speak a language that is more familiar to me. Christian
  5. Ego versus Humility

    I treat my ego like it is water. I can make it solid, liquid, or let it vanish. If someone flips me the bird, I make the ego into vapor. If my plans are interrupted by an accident, I make the ego liquid. If someone threatens my life, I make the ego solid like ice. When the ego is not needed, it joins the waters of the world. Anger is just frustration that tells me I not using the ego tool correctly. The ego is the most useful illusion the Dao has ever conjured up.
