an invitation to immerse ourselves in the Tao
About the Presentation
The Tao (Dao) is the origin of the universe in the palm of our hand. The Path, as Lao Zi called it, is a life experience that invites us to explore one of the most mysterious and revealing topics in human existence.
The Tao Te Ching contains one of the oldest philosophies of ancient China, considered the Bible of Taoism, a spiritual path practiced by millions around the globe. In this talk, we will delve into discovering what the Tao is and what it is not. Through definitions and experiences we can have a clearer understanding, and in the same way more diffuse and profound. After all, the Tao invites us to think beyond all logic and see beyond the senses. Just as Bruce Lee interpreted it in Enter the Dragon: Don't focus on my finger, otherwise you will miss all the divine glory.
