: My dearest Butch,
:
: The Hua Hu Ching is the sorest piece of
: Taoist propaganda ever inflicted upon the
: world of dust.
:
: It's crude and rudimentary attempts to pass
: off Lao Tzu as the 'teacher' of Sakyamuni
: Buddha, the western barbarian 'Prince' in
: the story, has inspired Taoist extermists
: for over a thousand years. It's naive
: attempt to mimic a Buddhist sutra fails on
: more than the scholastic level, and probably
: for this reason Ni's group is one of the
: very few to circulate it.
:
: Ni, it should also be noted, is widely
: shunned by 'orthodox' Taoists.
:
: But hey,if it works for you..........
:
Lian Dao,
Orthodox Taoists. Is that anything like an Orthodox Jew? Or an Orthodox Christian? Or an Orthodontist?
I see nothing extremist in the Hua Hu Ching. Can you share with me something from it that you consider extreme?
