Hi all.
I have been reading posts on this site for a short while and I think its time I made my introduction.
I have had an interest in Taoist philosophy for many years. I have read and studied many different versions of the Dao De Jing and Yi Jing and tried my hand at making my own translations from the Chinese using the many translation aids available. Relatively recently I decided it was time to stop studying and start doing. My life is still more hectic and complicated than I would like, but slowly, day by day, I am putting more and more of the Dao and Yi into practice. I was drawn to the effortlessness of living 'the Way'. The instructions are so simple and I often find myself asking, "How come I haven't figured this out for myself in all these years?"
I really like how so much can be learned from so few words, yet trying to explain those same few words takes so many more words. I am glad there are many others out there who feel the same and have created sites like this one where we can share our insights and experiences.
