reviewed Watching the tree on December 05, 2013 Watching the tree
This book is my East Asian Philosophy 101 course. A broad yet definitive guide to Chinese culture.
I loved her grandfather's comment about how Chinese wear Confucian thinking caps, Taoist robes, and Buddhist sandals (skeptical of religions.) Her grandfather knows me better than I know myself lol And I instinctively follow all these Chinese ideologies without ever having studied any of those immense texts like I Ching, Tao Te Ching, or the Analects of Confucius although I remember bugging my mom about it when I was young. She didn't care for these things so she wasn't much help.
I love the idea that Buddhism is not a religion in the Western sense of the word, but rather a way to an awakened state. And I'm fascinated by the I Ching, despite its occult/black magic background. I'm buying the Willhelm translation.
I also absolutely love and wish I had as grounded and strong minded an aunt as hers. She rescued Adeline over and over and set her on the right path to happiness. I will be referencing that letter about having differences with your parents and letting yourself grow as an individual.
this has been my all-time favorite book. it's also very closely connected to who I am and where I come from.
