New to the community - hi all

[theseeker4]

Hi everyone

My name is Chris and I'm I'm philosopher and a spiritualist at heart and am on a quest to learn more about various cultural and spiritual beliefs as a way to integrate more knowledge into my own perceptions and beliefs. I believe Taoism/Daoism will be a key part of this.

 

 

I've always admired Taoism and its deeply rooted eastern traditions. Recently I've become more attached to this ancient atmosphere which I feel possesses high wisdom and knowledge found rarely anywhere else - and done so amidst a simplicity of sorts. And for this it's specifically beautiful.

 

To me "the way"is part of an inner knowing that simply makes sense, complex - and dynamic yes, but at the same time embodied within our natural instinct to just know and flow. If that makes any sense. I've always been attuned Taoism/Daoism but am now taking on a very proactive effort to get my hands on and read through as much literature and ancient texts.
Through the teachings of Taoism I hope to shape my own spiritual development towards connecting with the way/flow and hopefully be able to make a positive impact towards those around me while being ever closer and one with nature.

Thanks for having me - and I look forward to learning and discussing.
Peace / Love / Balance
