Peregrino Posted November 2, 2006 A very hearty welcome indeed, Raymond! I really get a lot out of your apophatic mysticism site, and in another "incarnation" invited you over here. How's the book coming along? Really happy that you've found some time to share your insights here. Best, Peregrino Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raymond Posted November 3, 2006 Thanks for the warm welcome and generous comments Peregrino, freeform and Sean To Peregrino: I think the book could be ready by next summer. I think I will try to publish it myself so readers can be allowed to copy anything from it they want to. Or all of it. Here are some of the central concepts of apophatic mysticism, as I see it, which I hope to treat in the book: 應物而不窮者也 Ying wu er bu qiong zhe ye Be unrestricted in responding to things. Zhuangzi chapter 14 抱神以靜,形將自正。 Bao shen yi jing, xing jiang zi zheng Gather your mind-body energy into inner stillness and your outer being will regulate itself spontaneously. Zhuangzi chapter 11 raymond Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
