To be a Taoist means many things to many people. To be a practitioner of Contemporary Taoism simply means to have realised that we are all minute parts of an indescribably large Whole (the Tao), and to choose therefore to 'Flow Like Water' and live in a spontaneous, natural manner. This blog is about: Personal Growth / Spiritual Development as guided by the principles of Eastern Philosophy, particularly modern philosophical Taoism; Developing constructive habits and achieving success with minimal effort; Meditation - Taoist, Zen or otherwise. See 'What In Lao Tzu's Name is a Contemporary Taoist?'

Practicing, Practicing...

'Practicing self-refinement is the first priority;
Stopping craving,
Forgetting emotions,
Removing entanglements.

When all attachment to the senses is cut off,
There is a single field of elixir,
Completely clean and clear.'

Chang Po-Taun
(Commentary by Liu I-Ming)
