Hello, *p*I wonder, has anyone on this board discussed the connections between Druidism the ancient Chinese religion of Taoism? I know a bit about Taoism and have been told that Druid beliefs are very similar. I've read a bit about the Druids, enough to see that this is true to some extent. my goal is to discover to WHAT extent. I will say for now that that both are beautiful and require a deep understanding and love of the Earth. Taoism (the "philosophical kind with which I am familiar) has three basic beliefs: Wu wei, Bau pu, and Yin yang. I would love the chance to expound on these a little if anyone here is interested. I suspect some of you might be surprised to learn that something from China could be so near to your own practices. I would REALLY love to speak to anyone who has already made the connection. For now, *p*Peace, Um Lei-Tung*p*
