IN PERSON: The Lived Philosophy of Lao Tzu (Part 2)

This is our IN PERSON event for Saturdays. We usually meet every 2 weeks. Also, there is no Zoom link available.

TOPIC – This Saturday, we continue our discussion of the author Lao Tzu, who is the Chinese philosopher credited as the founder of Taoism. The book Tao Te Ching has 81 short chapters. We will continue where we left off last time. You don't need to read in advance; all quotes will be provided in an outline format. We will also compare to Stoicism, Buddhism, Minimalism, and American Transcendentalism. Please join us for a lively conversation!
