Magic is perception

Know these boundaries to discover what lies beyond.

Welcome

A Personal Tao is my online home as a Taoist Teacher helping others learn Taoism and find inner harmony.

A Personal Tao is a book, a collection of Taoist reference materials, art, a blog and a Zen Garden: all coming together as a modern guide to the Tao. Explore the Tao to help open new personal insights about life.

Where to Start

Be welcomed to wander and explore. Taoism is never about a destination, rather it's about experiencing life within the journey itself. Learning Taoism is learning to embrace the heart. My personal favorite spot here is the Zen Garden.

How to learn Taoism:

Release, play and then explore!

Many people start with the Tao Te Ching, while others will wander to their whim. Come and ask questions at our blog or share your own stories. This public resource is openly arranged to encourage each person to just explore. There is no perfect generalized way to learn Taoism, in Taoism we teach each person individually and according to their heart.

What is the Tao?

The Tao's definition always slips around words, only to be expressed completely by living. Discover that the Tao is indefinable and yet...

The Tao is about 10,000 things and is truly about being yourself.

The path to understanding the Tao is accepting yourself.

Heaven and Hell are not after life
Heaven and Hell are within life.
It's in movement we create joy
It's in despair we cement walls.

Step over limitation.
      Openly reveal, peel apart & feel poetry
      moving around every barrier
   Overflowing to your own nature.

Never regret action
     as the past lies
     in fleeting memories.
To Live, eternally, now
      within the way
      of exploring possibility.

The secret to life is...
     Simply being true to yourself and smiling
     Looking upon each day,
           with the new wonder it deserves.

What is Taoism?

Taoism is more than a philosophy or a religion. A Personal Tao is defined as:

The system of faith, attitude and practices set towards the living to your true nature.

The practice of Taoism is to flow with life.

The Personal Tao site is always growing with additional works of Taoist art and literature. If you know about a resource or would like to share your experiences, please contact Casey.
