UCS Forum Vision Our Beliefs Gallery ... Become a Member TAOISM: A PORTRAIT by Dr. Douglas K. Chung Professor at Grand Valley State University School of Social Work, Grand Rapids, Michigan Li Erh (6th century BCE) commonly known as Lao Tzu (the Old Master), was a contemporary of Confucius. He was the keeper of the imperial library, but in his old age he disappeared to the west, leaving behind him the Tao Te Ching (Book of Tao and Virtue). Taoism derived its name from this profoundly wise book, only about 5,000 words in length. It can be used as a guide to the cultivation of the self as well as a political manual for social transformation at both the micro and macro levels. The philosophy of Taoism and its belief in immortals can be traced back to the Yellow Emperor, Huang-Ti. That is why Taoism is often called the "Huang-Lao" philosophy. Taoism believes "Tao" to be the cosmic, mysterious, and ultimate principle underlying form, substance, being, and change. Tao encompasses everything. It can be used to understand the universe and nature as well as the human body. For example, "Tao gives birth to the One, the One gives birth to Two, and from Two emerges Three, Three gives birth to all the things. All things carry the Yin and the Yang, deriving their vital harmony from the proper blending of the two vital forces." ( Tao Te Ching , ch. 42) Tao is the cause of change and the source of all nature, including humanity. Everything from quanta to solar systems consists of two primary elements of existence, Yin and Yang forces, which represent all opposites. These two forces are complementary elements in any system and result in the harmony or balance of the system. All systems coexist in an interdependent network. The dynamic tension between Yin and Yang forces in all systems results in an endless process of change: production and reproduction and the transformation of energy. This is the natural order.

S ome 1500 years ago in the Hunan province of China, Shao-lin monks wanted to live in isolation, pursuing the peaceful teachings of Buddha. In order to protect their freedom in a land filled with violence, they developed a powerful system of self-preservation. This system was based on the avoidance of conflict and the cultivation of mind, body, and spirit.

64. Taoism And The Taoist Arts A general introduction to taoism and the Taoist Arts of T ai Chi, Meditation, Martial Arts, Herbalism and Traditional Chinese Medicine. http://www.taoistarts.net/

Taoism And The Taoist Arts Taoism is an ancient Chinese philosophy which promotes living simply and in harmony with nature, and going with the flow. Ancient Taoists believed that by following the natural world, pursuing a strict diet and meditation regime and not struggling with their lot, they could achieve an inner calm, improved health and great martial power. But despite its age, Taoism has a lot to offer the average Westerner and more and more people are turning towards the Taoist arts to help them with questions and problems in their lives. The Taoist masters, often referred to in the ancient texts as 'sages' or even 'immortals' typically studied such topics as meditation, martial arts, herbalism, diet and medicine and often the arts. Though they might seem unconnected, study of all of these topics leads to self improvement on a physical, mental or spiritual level and this is one of the reasons they appealed to the Taoists of old. As 'Taoist Arts' information on each topic can be found in these pages. Introduction Main Concepts Yin and Yang The 5 Elements ...

var cm_role = "live" var cm_host = "angelfire.lycos.com" var cm_taxid = "/memberembedded" OM Balamurugan S I am not an orator. I am no writer either. And yet, I attempt to express the inexpressible! Where seekest thou? That freedom, friend, this world nor that can give! In books and temples vain thy search – for thine is the hand that holds the rope that drags thee on! Then cease lament and let go thy hold . - Swami Vivekananda, July 1895 The Quest For every person that starts on a spiritual quest, several would ask why? When we are happy with this world, why do we need to ask these hard questions? Why would anyone perfectly happy with the status quo start on a quest? The seeker is one who is not happy with the explanation of the world (scientific or religious). Because there comes a time when there is abundant joy or acute pain or we are faced with the death of a loved one. Even those that brave through these without asking the Question face the prospect of death someday and ask “Is this world real?”, “was my life real?”, “Is there something beyond this life?”. These questions create a sense of fear, while most philosophies and religions describe death as a “peaceful” process! (Tao says it is the “return to where we came from” – interestingly, this does not contradict with any belief system including that of the atheist or believer!)

Zen and the Art of Divebombing, or The Dark Side of the Tao In the Bhagavad Gita , Arjuna is taught by Krishna that it is his dharma as a warrior to fight the righteous battle with his cousins and kill them, and that if he kills them without passion or expectation, practicing karmayoga , he can achieve salvation even while he does this. A similar mix of purposes, religious and martial, though with major differences, can be found centuries later with the samurai warrior class of Japan, and with the militaristic ideology that later developed in modern Japan. Although fighting battles and killing enemies would seem to violate the Buddha- dharma , specifically the Precept of the Buddha not to kill, an apparent violation that has troubled many over the years, certain samurai, and later the modern military, ultimately could see themselves as fulfilling a Buddhist purpose in what they did, even in the horrors of World War II in the Pacific. The code of the samurai, later called , the "Way of the Warrior," was in no way a religious duty like Arjuna's dharma , but a connection between religion and battle was made through the way in which Zen Buddhism wedded Buddhist purposes to both the Taoist practice of an art or a craft and, in a historical tradition dominated by a military class, the Japanese "martial arts."

Taoism Profile History Beliefs Deities ... Bibliography I. Group Profile Name : Taoism Founder : Lao-tzu Date of Birth : 551 B.C.E. Birth Place : China Year Founded : 440 C.E. Sacred or Revered Texts The most recognized Taoist text is the Tao Te Ching, "The Way of Power," or "The Book of the Way." It is believed to have been written by Lao-Tse but there is a great deal of controversy surrounding the authorship. Most scholars today believe that the Tao Te Ching wasn't written until about 300 to 250 B.C.E. Recent studies even suggest that the Tao Te Ching may have actually been written within a circle of scholarly men. The Tao Te Ching describes the nature of life, the way to peace, and how a ruler should lead his life. The book itself is very short. It is only 5000 characters contained in 81 chapters. The Tao Te Ching is divided into two parts: the Tao-ching and the Te-ching. Very early in history it is possible that these two texts existed individually, however, at some time they were translated together and remain this way today. Chuang-tzu (named after its author) is the second most recognized Taoist text. The Chuang-tzu contains additional teachings relevent to Taoism. It describes Taoist philosophy in greater detail as well as relays stories of Taoist masters and disciples. The Chuang-tzu highlights techniques that focus on breathing, meditation, sexual activity, and diet. The Chuang-tzu is organized into three sections. It is not clear as to when this text was written however estimates are that it was written, sometime in the fourth century B.C.E.
