Hello,
Welcome to my home page. I hope you will enjoy the information that I bring to you and that it inspires you to seek out knowledge for our own personal reasons and rewards. You see the mind is like an old chest that you one day find up in the attic. It is usually very large, and has a latent beauty and usefulness to it. But first things first.
First for it to be useful you must empty it so you can begin to fill it, then you must clean it up and make it worth presenting. In other words dump all preconceived notions, for most are wrong, and begin to reconstruct your mind. The first step in this recovery process is to accept how ignorant we all are in this world
and to try to make a little dent in that overwhelming ignorance before we die. Become the seeker, and go on unflinching with your quest.
I am trying to organize what I have come to call the Taoist Circle. It is a group of people ( not necessarily Taoists ) that are interested in learning and expanding their knowledge. In conjunction with this group of people, I put out a free bimonthly newsletter on Taoism. It has news, essays, web site reviews, letters from members, articles on Taoist history and practices, book reviews, jokes, quotes, and current listings of many Taoist forms of communication (new sites, newsletters, publications, mailing lists etc.). Along with all this also comes a chat room, a message board to post your questions and thoughts to, a Mailing List where you can send and receive email from all on this list, a list of members interested in corresponding with other Taoist (Members' List), and a site where you can submit your articles or thoughts to the letter (Write the letter) .
And if you are on AOL you have an added feature of what I call TTC Chat. This is a way that all members on AOL can identify themselves through their profile and use the members search to chat with other members while on line.
So if you are interested in joining or getting more info on the "Taoist Circle" please enter your complete email address (please double check for accuracy) and click on the corresponding box below.
