“Many of those in the medical fraternity instantly label treatments in the traditional, natural or holistic health fields as quackery.

“Qi is the Chinese word for "life energy". According to Chinese medicine, qi is the animating power that flows through all living things. A living being is filled with it. A dead person has no more qi. A healthy individual has more qi than one who is ill. However health is more than an abundance of qi. Health implies that the qi in our bodies is clear, rather than polluted and turbid, and flowing smoothly, liek a stream, not blocked or stagnant.”

“No matter how pure the quality of our "food," if it emanates from a fanatical, one-sided mental viewpoint, it will reflect the limitations of a thought process that perpetuates the underlying sickness of our emotional and spiritual being. An individual who is unable to achieve a balance of physical exercise, creative expression, and introspective soulful enjoyment will find it difficult to achieve a healing balance with food alone. [...] Fanatical adherence to anything, especially regarding diet, can become its own disease.”
Michael Tierra, The Way of Chinese Herbs

Alan Watts used to say that angels, like Daoist Immortals, can fly because they take themselves lightly!”

“To the Daoists, the Image (Xiang) is the inner form of things, the primal idea from which physical reality later manifests.”
