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* Druidism/Taoism Um Lei-Tung 30 Mon May 11 23:46:33 1998
