Why Heresy?

Heresy is a believer illuminating the gaps and flaws in the dogma, seeking the core truth - not apostasy with disillusionment and rejection, nor blasphemy of disrespect.

Heretics are madmen or visionaries, crackpots or geniuses, charlatans or zealots.

The purpose of 'Tao Heresy - Heaven and Earth' is not to create a schism in an already diverse understanding of Taoism - rather, my humble objective is to remember and re-illustrate the core principles of the Tao embodied by the 'Tao Te Ching' without the dogma and trappings that have grown into Taoism through synchretism - hopefully allowing open-minded adherents to find a Tao that can be applied to any human condition.
