Stosh Posted August 1, 2014 That sounds like quasi-intellectual poppycock... The following sounds like Taoism: T.T.C. 52. "ALL-under-Heaven have a common Beginning. This Beginning is the Mother of the world. Having known the Mother, We may proceed to know her children. Having known the children, We should go back and hold on to the Mother. In so doing, you will incur no risk Even though your body be annihilated..." What part do you feel is the poppycock? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
