And 'being one and whole with everything' obviously

Tao

Parenthesis guy was literally on tao without being aware of it

yes, the tao is a good book, easy read too

What did you think of the general philosophy?

Of tao

I can see it working for some but too pacifistic for my liking

some great chapters in there, real wisdom

I dont mean like in the practical sense, tao is correlated with stoicism and it represent its practical side there

I meant if you agreed on the 'wholeness' and the eternal cycle and all that structures when you gave some thought to it

Anyone here familiar with Guénon?

you see

having argued literally last night with people who'd assert capitalism vs communism in an all-out slugging match of productive efficiency (LOL NO STARVATION IN 1ST WORLD COUNTRIES) it really hits home that none of them could've read anything even remotely related to the subject matter

The first page of this is partly dedicated to describing the US industrial apparatus as one worthy of praise and intrigue, but one fundamentally set apart from collective ownership/operation

Marx talks about it quite a lot too
