  • Exploring Daoist Philosophy: Ziran and Reverence for the Natural - Room 208

    Wednesday, October 28, 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
    A five-part course on Daoist philosophy for nature-lovers, tree-huggers, and authority-questioners. This ancient, egalitarian Chinese tradition has inspired hermits, anarchists, sci-fi writers, rebellions, and environmentalists for millennia. After covering the basics, we'll dive deep into ziran ("natural spontaneity"), a deep idea that the purest things act freely, of themselves, without outside imposition. Expect poetry, ancient but approachable texts, laid-back presentations, and open discussion facilitated by Zach Ammerman. All faith backgrounds (and none) welcome to explore this non-theistic philosophy. Appropriate both for newcomers and for those who took the previous Daoism course last spring. Facilitated by Zach Ammerman. Meets Wednesdays, 7-9pm, starting on October 7 - November 4 (5 sessions). Register here
