Really wonderful. Your posts are a great balance of information and inspiration. I especially appreciated the post on mind fasting and Trump (I live in Oregon). And your personal story is fascinating. Looking forward to reading more! All the best, Galen PearlGalen Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10189831838630645863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5842932455093396534.post-25992998791040821982017-02-02T18:23:59.894-06:002017-02-02T18:23:59.894-06:00I just spent some time browsing on your wonderful ...I just spent some time browsing on your wonderful blog. I found it through the "Conveyance Doctor's" blog after he found my blog and commented on it. Love those cyberspace connections!<br /><br />I learned a lot from the several posts I read. Love the term "mind-fasting." And I see you just published a book. Wishing you the best with that.<br /><br />You and I share a love of the Dao De Jing. I spent almost three years contemplating the original Chinese so that I could get a sense of it directly. Exquisitely profound. I learned so much from the rhythm, poetry, and elusive meanings that are much more evident in the Chinese than in my many beloved translations.<br /><br />After several years away from blogging, I started a new blog a year ago to reflect on my study of the text, as well as my practice of martial arts, and whatever else strikes my fancy. My posts on the DDJ chapters are not as in depth as your offerings, so I especially appreciate your fuller exploration of these topics.<br /><br />Anyway, just wanted to say hello.Galen Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10189831838630645863noreply@blogger.com
