Pin (Ma, Ed, All), - How are you? Kind of joking as well as brainstorming, Pin  ...  A hike on Sunday near Baltimore at Burke Lake or Mason's Neck ... BUT NOT YET VIRTUALLY :)... (I caught glimpses of these in AllTrails ... Thanks Ed for this some years ago) ... and to talk and walk and hang out and maybe philosophy-wise even ... or reasoning -wise ? Am thinking this might not happen before I potentially move west to a newly safe Canyon 94516 in 2024 but expressing  good thinking re out hanging out in high school years ... Have been riffing however with the Tao Te Ching and Desiderata in some of these regards ...  (And will send) Fond regards,🥰, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/society%20and%20Taoism and  ...  http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Taoism and http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/philosophy 🙂)

tao of the desiderata ?


Tao Te Ching and The Desiderata ?


How to riff with the 

The Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu

The Tao Te Ching
by Lao Tzu

Tao Te Ching eg in 81 new poems to elaborate on  the Desiderata?








1
"Go placidly ... "& 

"Speak your truth quietly and clearly" 

... about the "Tao," 

& Desiderata-wise : "in silence," and "without surrender be on good terms with all persons" and "love,""spirit,""universe,""God,""soul,""dark imaginings,""cheerfulness," 

- since that is not the little (small capitalization) "tao"  ... 

Is this
"The gateway to all understanding"? 

"Speak your truth quietly and clearly" as "the universe is unfolding as it should" ... 



"1
The tao that can be told
is not the eternal Tao
The name that can be named
is not the eternal Name.

The unnamable is the eternally real.
Naming is the origin
of all particular things.

Free from desire, you realize the mystery.
Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations.

Yet mystery and manifestations
arise from the same source.
This source is called darkness.

Darkness within darkness.
The gateway to all understanding."




(Quotes from Stephen Mitchell's translation of "The Tao Te Ching" and from "The Desiderata.")

South China Karst

South China Karst

South China Karst is one of the world’s most spectacular examples of humid tropical to subtropical karst landscapes. It is a serial site spread over the provinces of Guizhou, Guangxi, Yunnan and Chongqing and covers 97,125 hectares. It contains the most significant types of karst landforms, including tower karst, pinnacle karst and cone karst formations, along with other spectacular characteristics such as natural bridges, gorges and large cave systems. The stone forests of Shilin are considered superlative natural phenomena and a world reference. The cone and tower karsts of Libo, also considered the world reference site for these types of karst, form a distinctive and beautiful landscape. Wulong Karst has been inscribed for its giant dolines (sinkholes), natural bridges and caves.
