how can you be in two places at once when you're not anywhere at all?

[Giacomond]

Stumbled upon this site searching the notion of rebirth in Dao-ism. Driven by joy and suffering, after one who has been on the way ahead of me.

 

Also: echoes of Gurdjieff and alchemy in the desultory readings I've done. Looking for a compact way to study Daoism/Taoism

 

and

 

any recommendations for a qi gong teacher in the Berkeley California area?

Personal contact welcome, if that works here.

Hi Giacomond.  Welcome to the forum.   I am sorry for your loss.  I too am interested in “rebirth in Dao-ism“.  What are your findings?  A “compact way to study Daoism/Taoism”, ah if only I knew.  Still, here’s my advise:  never waste your time on commentaries.

I was only curious about the treatment, if at all, in Daoism. This thread

 

prompted me to subscribe here. Some very different principles compared to what is familiar to me.
