It's also piqued my interest in learning more about Toaism as a whole!Īll in all, a quick, cute read that has some lovely nuggets of wisdom inside.
But I want to start getting in touch with my inner "Pooh". I have my Eeyore days, my Owl days, and defitniely my Piglet days. The author's explanation of Taoism through Pooh, and Pooh through Taoism, shows that this is not simply an ancient and remote philosophy but something you can use, here and now. It's a quick read that helped me reflect on how I'm living my life. In The Tao of Pooh, Benjamin Hoff shows that Pooh's Way is amazingly consistent with the principles of living envisioned by the Chinese founders of Taoism. I think if you are someone that is a fan of Winnie the Pooh, and interested in learning about other philosophies, you would enjoy this book. Sounds confusing, right? Well, after the first couple of pages, I was able to catch onto what was going on and it made the whole reading process rather endearing. Milne stories and Taoist principles, but as the author was writing, he kept being interrupted by Pooh in was that further illustrated the points he was making. It's a blend of the author attempting to write about the parallels between the classics A. Benjamin Hoffs explanations of Taoism and Te through Pooh and Piglet show that this is not an ancient and remote philosophy but something that you can use. Especially since I grew up loving Winnie the Pooh and all of his friends in the Hundred Acre Woods. I had very little knowledge of Taoism going into it, but was intrigued. My friend gifted this book to me at a time when I was feeling a little adrift in life. Even if you aren't interested in Taoism, I think you can get some great nuggets of wisdom from this charming book. TL DR: Quick, lovely read that used Winnie the Pooh as a means to understand some principles and aspects of Taoism.
