    Snoopy Zen

    Thank you for the favor of an enquiry, Avi, and many thanks for placing such a high estimation of my lowly status:o in the the same realm as His Snoopy-ness, But... I am of the Tao (in my own hap-hazard fashion), HE is of the Zen, although we both are of the Tea.:)

    Thank you for the favor of a reply Gatekeeper. It is but a matter of grouping similar concepts together and with that integration providing such limits or bounds as may be required for the evaluation of the expression. One example of similarities follow: # To exhibit self control. # To avoid...

    Thank you for the favour of a reply, Abdullah. Could one then say that "fear" is the primary motivator, in this case, rather than faith?

    Knights of Liberty

    Greets Gatekeeper. It had just occured to me, just after the preceding post, that a sub-set of criteria which is listed within your set of "Requirements" has a familiar "ring" to it. If one would take a look at the Norse/Asatru set of 9 Noble Virtues, or whatever their proper name for it might...

    Knights of Liberty

    Greets Gatekeeper. It would be interesting to keep a log of the original listing versus those that have been revised along with some illustrative commentary, by way of explanation, of the principals themselves. Additionally, while you have addressed the importance of loyalty might I also...

    leadership

    "The Art of War" is a very good resource that one may apply to avoiding and, in some applications, de-fusing conflicts with "The Book of Five Rings" being a guide for conflict resolution. Still much may be found concerning leadership skills in both the "Tao Te Ching" and the "I Ching." I would...

    Knights of Liberty

    An impressive listing of the contents in a large can of worms. I can see the potential of much room for improvement within that listing as a first step. But then again, this is not facebook.

    What do you drink?

    Green Teas. As I increase my sampling and collection of green teas, of the sub variety of Pu Erh's, I am finding that those others pale in comparison both in boldness and complexity. This includes my much depended upon Gunpowder green teas. Korean green teas with ginger are "interesting" but...

    Greetings All

    Welcome DT. Apple pie, Wisahican Creek, B.F. Institute, Cobblestones, Art Museum, Mummers, et al. But not enough to go back. It has something to do with: "Elbowroom, cried Dan'l Boone." P.S. What parts of Montana catch your eye? I favour the Kalispell or "Little Joe" areas meself.

    How connected is Tao with Buddhism and Confucianism?

    Thank you for the favor of a reply, SeattleGal. It is indeed appropriate to note the similarities between Tea and Zen . From from the Chinese philoso-tea classic, the Tea du Jour (lately mispelled as Dao De Jing;) ) we find a chapter that leads off with "Abandon Knowledge." And others not...
