JustARandomPanda Posted September 7, 2012 I was wondering if anyone would be interested in reading and discussing Confucius' Analects with me in this thread chapter by chapter similar to the way Lao Tzu and Chang Tzu are in their respective subforums. If there is interest I also might appeal to Sean to create a Confucius subforum as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marblehead Posted September 7, 2012 That might be a good project since we have been talking about him and offering no support for his point of view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basher Posted September 7, 2012 Agree that it would be interesting to try and study / understand the thoughts / ideas of Confucius. Why hasn't anybody thought of creating a "Confucian Bums" website, I wonder ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marblehead Posted September 7, 2012 Then, we would be bored to death. I laughed but in my case it is likely to be very true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustARandomPanda Posted September 7, 2012 I sent Sean a PM requesting he create a Confucian subforum. Hopefully he'll reply soon since he's the only person who has the power to create it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rene Posted September 7, 2012 (edited) SereneBlue - wonderful !! May I suggest a small idea? Since the Nei-yeh subforum has been idle for a while... maybe we could use that and (hopefully) when the Confucian subforum is created, those threads could be just moved over. As long as the first word in the thread title is "Confucius" or "Analects"..they'd be easy to identify. Unless you feel Sean is around and it wont be a month or two... We all know he's such a busy guy. Edit: Or even just start the project right here in the Taoism section, and later easily move the threads when the new subforum is created. Can you tell I'm looking forward to this? LOL Edited September 8, 2012 by rene Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Practitioner Posted September 8, 2012 Excellent idea. I think it is a wonderful idea to have a broader understanding of traditional chinese philosophy and ethics, even that which is not encompassed by our beloved Daoism Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thelerner Posted September 10, 2012 Do you believe in channelings . Meaning speaking to dead . If so , wouldn ' t be interesting waking up Confucius ? I'd let him sleep. His writings are Confusioning enough . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
