122. Eastern Philosophy- Taoism

TAOISM
    by Fritjof Capra
Of the two main Chinese trends of thought, Confucianism and Taoism, the latter is the one which is mystically oriented and thus more relevant for our comparison with modern physics. Like Hinduism and Buddhism, Taoism is interested in intuitive wisdom, rather than in rational knowledge. Acknowledging the limitations and the relativity of the world of rational thinking, Taoism is, basically, a way of liberation from this world and is, in this respect, comparable to the ways of Yoga or Vedanta in Hinduism, or to the Eightfold Path of the Buddha. In the context of Chinese culture, the Taoist liberation meant, more specifically, a liberation from the strict rules of convention.
Mistrust of conventional knowledge and reasoning is stronger in Taoism than in any other school of Eastern philosophy. It is based on the firm belief that the human intellect can never comprehend the Tao. In the words of Chuang Tzu, The most extensive knowledge does not necessarily know it; reasoning will not make men wise in it. The sages have decided against both these methods. Chuang Tzu's book is full of passages reflecting the Taoist's contempt of reasoning and argumentation. Thus he says

123. Chinese Culture
Promoting taoism as a philosophy.
http://www.openface.ca/~dstephen/chphil.htm
Jump to Fun and painless way to learn about Chinese Philosophy Confucius said, "Respect the gods and the devils but keep them at a distance."
Preamble
I am interested in, but far from being an expert of, oriental philosophies. The purpose of this section is to help promote Buddhism and Taoism as philosophies and at the same time dispel the general perception that Buddhism and Taoism are mere idol worships, incense burning and fortune telling. I am neither a Buddhist nor a Taoist and do not agree with everything they say. For buddhism, I am intrigued by the way they look at nature. I am attracted to their idea that: "Emptiness or Imperceptibles" (Huon/Kung) Sunyata is the "real world", imperceptible to our senses ; "Form" (Sik) is our "perception" of the "Impercetibles" ; and finally, , is the "representations" we made from the "forms" we have in our minds. This is very similar to the Quantum Mechanical view of: Huon= wave function before a measurement; Sik=result of the measurement ; Shan=representation of the result of the measurement.
As to Taoism, I am drawn to it by their idea of an "Indifferent Universe". (The universe does not give a damn !) It is up to the "Sage"; or a "Benevolent Ruler" to make life better for everyone.

124. The KnowMadz - Taoism
taoism. EIGHT. The highest good is like water. taoism teaches that we should be in harmony with our surroundings and not cause strife in the world.
http://www.knowmadz.org/meta/tao.htm
TAOISM
EIGHT
The highest good is like water.
Water gives life to the ten thousand things and does not strive.
It flows in places men reject and so is like the Tao. In dwelling, be close to the land.
In meditation, go deep.
In dealing with others, be gentle and kind.
In speech, be true.
In ruling, be just.
In business, be competent.
In action, watch the timing. No fight : no blame
Tao, meaning "the Way," is a philosophy that teaches oneness with the forces of the Universe. The teachings can be found in the Tao te Ching written by Lao Tsu. Everything has a particular nature and to fight against the nature of ones self or of anything else can only cause unhappiness. Taoism teaches that we should be in harmony with our surroundings and not cause strife in the world. Their belief is put to practice in Tai Chi and Aikido, the Martial Arts they developed in order to protect themselves against those who would hurt them. These are soft arts and allow the enemy to hurt himself on his own strength rather than forcefully causing harm.

Before they put a man on the moon, there was Ursula K. Le Guin. Before Star Wars , there was Le Guin. A writer best known for breaking into the guys' club of science fiction, and for sending fantasy on new flights, she also has had a career of dazzling depth and breadth, writing short stories for The New Yorker and doing a translation of the central text of Taoism. She has produced mainstream fiction, poetry, children's books and essays, and two years ago, to sum it all up, she put her thoughts on writing in a book called, in fitting space-age lingo, Steering the Craft In her writing, Le Guin inhabits alternate realities. But she lives in Portland, Oregon, in a Victorian with a carefully tended perennial garden. It is an unassuming home she has shared since 1960 with her husband, Charles, now a retired history professor, in a city neighborhood that in the past decade has gone from fixer-upper status to out-of-this-world prices. The Telling , which is part of her science-fiction series but will be marketed to a general audience. Next spring, DK Publishing will release her latest children's book

130. TAOISM AS AN EARTH-BASED TRADITION

http://www.apocryphile.net/jrm/articles/taoism.html
TAOISM AS AN EARTH-BASED TRADITION What is Taoism? This is the simplest of questions, and as a typical example of Taoist paradox, almost impossible to answer; mostly because there are many answers. Let's begin with what it is not. -It is not new. Taoism is one of the most ancient traditions known to humankind. Documents containing its essence can be dated as far back as 5,000 B.C.E. (1) -It is not a "fixed" or "solid" tradition. There are many versions of Taoism; for instance, there is popular Taoism as practiced today, which is a highly developed shamanistic religion, but like another great Eastern tradition, Tantric Buddhism, it is institutional (read: hierarchical) and has evolved right out of original Taoism's founding principles. There is also what Huston Smith calls Esoteric Taoism, which mutated largely into the ch'an (or zen in Japan) school of Buddhism. Esoteric Taoism is now extinct. (2) What we are left with, then, is Philosophical Taoism (synonymous with primitive Taoism), which is as close as we are likely to get the "original Taoism" mentioned above. Philosophic Taoism is what this paper is focused on, an ideal which has guided Chinese society for millennia. -It is not Patriarchal. Chinese society certainly is, but, oddly, primitive Taoism is not. If anything, it is deeply feminine, as we shall soon see.

Chad Hansen's Chinese Philosophy Pages Daoist-oriented interpretations This site contains segments of an extended interpretive theory of Classical Chinese philosophy that takes Daoism (Taoism) as the philosophical center . The interpretive theory turns on a new, more philosophical reading of the Daoist philosopher Zhuangzi (ChuangTzu ). My analysis highlights skeptical and relativist themes in his thinking. The crucial novelty is the assumption that Zhuangzi was a philosopher of language , like his close friend and philosophical interlocutor, Hui Shi , . He was deeply engaged with the linguistic and other insights of the Later Mohists (sometimes called Neo-Mohists or Dialectical Mohists) and the School of Names . His relation to the other famous Daoist, Laozi (Lao Tzu) is rather more indirect but their views are complementary in that both deal wi th dao guide at a higher level than do Confucians or Mohists. The site also contains my related writings about Confucianism

135. Tao Te Ching By Lao Tzu
The Tao Te Ching provides the basis for the philosophical school of taoism, which is an important pillar of Chinese thought. taoism
http://www.thebigview.com/tao-te-ching/tao-te-ching.html
About the Tao Te Ching The Tao Te Ching was written in China roughly 2,500 years ago at about the same time when Buddha expounded the Dharma in India and Pythagoras taught in Greece. The Tao Te Ching is probably the most influential Chinese book of all times. Its 81 chapters have been translated into English more times than any other Chinese document. The Tao Te Ching provides the basis for the philosophical school of Taoism, which is an important pillar of Chinese thought. Taoism teaches that there is one undivided truth at the root of all things. It literally means: = tao (the way) = te (power) = ching (scripture) The verses of the Tao Te Ching are written in ancient Chinese, which is very different from English. Abstraction and logic are not distinguishing marks of the ancient Chinese language, hence, it is less rigid than English and there are very few formal or grammatical structures. The classical Chinese word does not stand for a single concrete idea, but it evokes associations of different ideas and things. Quite a few Chinese words can be used as nouns, adjectives and verbs at the same time. Thus sentences composed of various signs have a sort of suggestive power, evoking emotions, ideas, and pictures.
It is almost impossible to render an ancient Chinese text properly in English without losing some part. Different translations of the Tao Te Ching may appear as completely different texts. In order to understand the original text fully it is helpful to read various translations that consummate each other. The alternative is, of course, to learn Chinese. This document uses the translation of Feng. Like any translation it can only approximate the true meaning and depth of the original.

Five Immortals
by Shifu Hwang Once upon a time, there was a country village. A beautiful place located at the hill of Huang Mountain. There were four boys and one girl who had been friends since childhood. They grew up and saw each other every day in the same village. One day the girl became sick and seemed to be running out of chances to recover her health. The four men wept deeply for their friend. A Taoist passed by, heard their lamenting and asked for the reason why. The Taoist simply handed them a prescription which included several herbal names as: Ahryranthis Bidentatae Radix, Morindae Radix, Polygoni Multiflori Radix, Polygalae Radix, Rehmanniae Radix, Cuscutae Semen..etc.

Conclusion
Introduction
‘Tao’ is a Chinese word meaning ‘way’, ‘way of Heaven’, ‘Path’ or ‘road’ or ‘method’. It indicates a line or principle of conduct. There is no proper English term for ‘Tao’. It means the ‘Eternal Being’. The Founder of Taoism was Lao-Tze. Lao-Tze was born in 604 B.C. in the village of Chu-Jhren, in Li country, belonging to the Ku province of the State Chu. He was born under the plum tree (in Chinese ‘Li’). He adopted it as his surname. The hair of the head was white when he was born. Hence he was called Lao-Tze (old boy) or philosopher, one who is child-like even when old. He was popularly called Lao-Tze. His name was Er (ear). He was called Tan after his death. ‘Tan’ means ‘long lobe’. He had peculiar long ears. His appellation was ‘Po Yang’ or "count of positive principle". He was a keeper or recorder of the secret Archives in the Royal court of Chore. He was a State Historian.
Tao
Lao-Tze says: Tao is one. It was in the beginning. It will remain for ever. It is Impersonal, eternal, immutable, omnipresent, bodiless, immaterial. It cannot be perceived by the senses. It is nameless. It is indescribable.
