I don't remember when but I remember wow, when I uncovered the meaning of paradox. While all those years I thought it was "an apparent contradiction" and then found out, via translation from Greek., that it means, "that which is contrary to public opinion" I was both surprised and relieved. Public opinion is not necessarily something I want to adopt and I find I am often swimming upstream, against the current of prevailing status quo, i.e. public opinion. And that's fine with me.
I’m practicing the paradoxes with you! Looking forward to discovering number 4. Although I’m way behind with my reading so you may have got there already!
Your first paradoxical practice of “Don’t Care,” seems close to one of mine “Hold it Loosely!”
Look forward to reading more about these practices ❤️
Sounds like challenge, but I'll join you!
All three are the path of the Tao
Yep!
