I can feel my brain rumbling… Like a volcano… I’m getting smarter with each parable I read… Not because it’s bringing me great revelation only, but because it’s activating brain cells I haven’t used in a long time. They are not religious at all, but I understand if you have to close this thread. It is purely philosophical. My other book is comparing psychotherapy in the east and west. Read 55 pages yesterday and I feel this is beneficial, to read in early sobriety greatly if you can. Ps I’m 25 days sober today.

I might just because it’s great to be able to read again. Although I’ve always been partial to the Taoist philosophy over any other philosophy for whatever reasons

Zen and Tao are very similar. That’s why I said that

Yeah zen is more advanced version of tao. I asked my sister why I like Tao Better then zen she said maybe because it’s in a more pure form.

We don’t allow religious discussions on this site. This for a couple of reasons. First, it tends to cause arguments, because for some reason people can’t seem to just respect each other’s different religious beliefs. Second, many folks suffer from religious delusions. It is one of the top three topics of delusion, alongside aliens and government conspiracies. We don’t allow discussions on those topics, either. Third, there are many members here who were subjected to exorcisms by family members who, sadly, did not understand their illness. Those memories can be very traumatic for those individuals, and they don’t need to be reminded of them.
I hope you can understand, and help keep this a safe place for everyone. Thanks
