True, we should always be constantly growing, seeking new knowledge and experiences, otherwise we become dull and wilt away.<br /><br />Just for the record, a Bonsai I had survived six months under my nurturing. It is incredibly difficult to keep it alive but I was glad I managed to do it for so long.KJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00594501161073415313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30984739.post-80053445249300577432009-12-29T18:13:56.841+00:002009-12-29T18:13:56.841+00:00This post made me feel like getting a Bonsai too ;...This post made me feel like getting a Bonsai too ; )<br />I was just recently moved deeply by the taoist philosophy, and a precious friend of mine advised me to read two books. I'm sharing the references in case you would be interested: Sufism and Taoism by Toshihiko Isutzu - which is really amazing (first part is about Ibn Arabi; second part is about Lao-Tzu and Chuang-Tzu; third part is a comparative study)<br />And this is the other book I haven't opened yet: The Tao of Islam, a sourcebook on islamic gender relationship by Sachiko Murata.<br />Bonne lecture ma'a Salam!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
