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