Default The Tao of Pooh

I've been reading a book recently called "The Tao of Pooh" as you'll most likely gather its a book that revolves around Winnie the Pooh.

Upon reading it I've realised many factor of its philosophy correlate with my own. I wont go into too much information but I have attached a PDF file that summarizes the basic gist of it.

If you're in a rut, or just want to take a different approach to life then I'd recommend this book to all.

Don't worry no viruses.

It actually is, I was expecting a regular old Winnie the Pooh book, but its told from an interviewers perspective on Taoism and how some stories of Pooh show signs of Tao.

I liked it though, and thats rare.

It really is an awesome book, I can't say I've read it all, though I am on the last chapter.

Have you ever read Yi Jing Book of Changes?

You would like it, and you would be few who could actually have a chance of fully understanding it. I only say that because not only did you read pooh, but your grasped the core of the stories given. Suggesting that you were intrigued by the best part of the book, even though most wouldnt agree to that, is a huge step forward :P!

If you get the chance read Yi Jing, itl be a huge eye opener.

No I haven't read it but I will now.
I'll try and find it somewhere, although I'm not sure where the book shops are or if they will actually sell it.
Thanks for the recommendation.
