Finished!
Finished it a few hours ago, but I needed to sit with this one a while. When I picked it up, I wasn't expecting a story about Taoism, among many other things, and I feel Le Guin is far too clever for me to grasp in one read. This was extraordinairy; I can't wait to read it again.

Today's book: "The Left Hand of Darkness" by Ursula K. Le Guin
First book with the new library card! This was recommended to me as a feminist alternative to Heinlein. Judging by the introduction, Le Guin was intimidatingly intelligent. I am here for it.

Morning tea: a 2025 ephemeral Green from Laoshan, the cradle of Taoism. Taste: puffed rice, Jerusalem artichokes, baked potato. Gives an exciting & awakening energy. 🙃

The 4th one is for a game I played a couple months ago. Nine Sols was a hard game for sure but I really enjoyed the curious taoism and cyberpunk mix, and many of thr character designs

Tao 道 of Wu wei 无为
Translated as “non-action” or “effortless action,” is one of the most profound principles in Taoism.
But it’s not about passivity - it’s about aligning so deeply with the flow of life that your actions arise naturally, without force or resistance.

Well… the rapture was supposed to be today. Guess their God forgot or had something else going on 🌿 Taoism doesn’t wait for cosmic escape plans. The Way is right here, in your next breath.

Also, I just double-checked the first article you posted from Gulf News. No mention of Taoism or a sisterhood there at all.

No, you didn't. First you just dropped the article about the Shaolin abbot on its own as if it were self-explanatory, then when challenged you said it was because you had searched for "taoism abuse" with Google and that was the first result, without any reference to actual content.

It's a very narrow view. Like not everything is a branch of Christianity. Taoism goes back many centuries earlier, it exists decentralized, nobody is converting anyone, and it's a passive existence where belief is completely optional from person to person. There's nothing evil or cultish about it.

Perhaps
The horse runs off
bad luck?
It returns with more
good fortune?
The son breaks his leg
bad luck?
He avoids the war
good fortune?
The old man just nods
“Perhaps.”

So was your conflation of Buddhism and Taoism because you don't recognise a difference, or was it because you didn't read the article you were citing as evidence? Because those are the only two explanations for your behaviour in this thread.

"You wanna try your luck Fa?" - Buling
Cute intro, Love her voice, Love her design
Hopefully a new 5 star to save for?
and a hint at things to come?
New region full of Taoism inspired characters?
Maybe that represents ancient china?
This game never ceases to amaze me

🌿 New Episode: Taoism & Hate 🌿
Hate isn’t just in the headlines — it seeps into daily life. Taoism doesn’t meet hate with more hate. It meets it with clarity, balance, and strength.

I've tried
combining
elements
of buddhism
taoism
and christianity
to create something new
in myself
a sort of
#synthesis
but the god
question
keeps coming up
doesn't it
imagine
an earth sometime
in the future
with no
human beings
no cities
no pollution
just
a gentle breeze

Before you rush to post a long opinion about any incident or tragedy, remember—no one really cares about your opinion unless they ask you directly.
Taoism reminds us: the river keeps flowing, whether we thrash against it or not.
Focus on the here and now—that’s all we ever have.
