Finding consolation in turbulent times
I finished Tao te Ching last week, now onto Buddha's Brain. Alan Watt's book seems like the next logical choice after this post.
Love the quote:
“We don’t see things as they are; we see them as we are.” - source unknown.
It succinctly sums up the 1000 word post on context I just wrote, in a single sentence.
Thanks for putting this together John, insightful as ever!
Just ordered myself a copy of that Alan Watt's book!
I really resonate with the idea of leaning into uncertainty, as with finding solace in eastern wisdom to help navigate the ever-changing world.
Tai chi introduced me to Taoism, which is the foundation of a lot of my thinking now (software being no exception)
