…a similar experience with Taoism. It is a kind of tough nut to crack coming from Western cultures what with our extensive theologies, holy books, and prescriptivist religions. I highly recommend “The Way of Chuang Tzu” by Thomas Merton. Perhaps this betrays some fundamental ignorance on my part, but I think understanding and internalizing the Taoist mindset makes meditation a little less relevant or necessary. Taoism…
…get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Thomas Merton! He was a truly wise man and I have several of his books (highly recommend Zen and the Birds of Appetite and The Wisdom of the Desert!) and enjoy his "The Way of Chuang Tzu ". But Merton wasn't a translator and was instead arranging others translations, as well as interpreting passages in his own way. So while I'd certainly recommend his books I wanted to stay within the…
…The non-action of the wise man is not inaction. It is not studied. It is not shaken by anything. The sage is quiet because he is not moved, Not because he wills to be quiet. - Thomas Merton, The Way of Chuang-Tzu

……在道家思想上也有过类似的体会。对于来自西方文化背景的人来说，面对我们那些庞杂的神学、圣书和教条式宗教，这确实算是个硬骨头。我非常推荐托马斯·默顿的《庄子之道》。也许这暴露出我某些根本性的无知，但我认为一旦理解并内化了道家的心态，冥想就变得没那么重要或必要了。道家……

……气疯了！他的技艺并未改变。但这奖赏 让他分神。他在意了。比起射箭本身， 他更在乎输赢—— 而那份求胜心 切断了他的力道。摘自托马斯·默顿编译的《庄子之道》，© 1965 年。
…out of his mind! His skill has not changed. But the prize Divides him. He cares. He thinks more of winning Than of shooting— And the need to win Drains him of power. From "The Way of Chuang Tzu", as translated by Thomas Merton, © 1965.
……别误会我，我可是托马斯·默顿的忠实拥趸！他是一个真正拥有大智慧的人，我手头有他的好几本书（强烈推荐《禅与食欲鸟》和《沙漠的智慧》！），也很喜欢他的《庄子之道》。但默顿并不是真正的翻译家，他只是在重新编排别人的译本，并按照自己的理解来诠释字句。所以虽然我肯定推荐他的书，但我还是想留在……
