    Haha tack så mycket! Har inte riktigt haft tiden eller sinnesfriden att bli aktiv ännu, but now it's time! :)

  2. It's impossible to attain the Tao since the Tao's not something. It is everything and what gives rise to everything, even thoughts about the Tao. "The Tao" is just what Lao Tzu chose to call "it", but all concepts and words are arbitrary. It is only when one "sheds" one's ego and its assumptions and mental images of the world that one sees the world for what it "truly is". This state is often reached through meditation, and once it is experienced something just "clicks". All inhibitions are gone. One just happens to say the right words at the right time, and there's an immense feeling of harmony and relief. It is a feeling of being exactly where one is supposed to be, for it would literally be impossible to be somewhere else. 

    In order to attain the Tao one must feel it, not think it.

  3. Hey, y'all!

    I'm Seb from Stockholm, Sweden. 

    I've been interested in eastern philosophy for as long as I can remember. I'm especially drawn to zen and taoism because of the "simplicity", and I'm happy to have found this nice forum/community where I can enter into discussions about the way :)

    Hope your 2019 is absolutely magical so far!
