Chang Posted October 20, 2015 Hello and welcome. You are accepted. Glad to have you as a member and thank you for the interesting introduction. I am sure that you will find much here to interest you. To answer your first two questions:- The Dao Bums idea arises from the 1968 Jack Karouac novel "The Dharma Bums." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dharma_Bums Yin and Yang and its associated symbol is all about everything. I am sure that these answers will get you off to a good start. Please take the time to read the two posts pinned at the top of this Welcome page and take a look at the forum terms and rules. This covers all you need to know when getting started. For the first week you will be restricted to ten posts per day but after that you can post as much as you like. Also, until you’ve posted fifteen times in the forums, you’ll be a “Junior Bum” with somewhat restricted access and will be allowed only two private messages per day. Good luck in your pursuits and best wishes to you, Chang and the TTB team ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
