A 10-lesson course delivered by email

mask 

Course description

As the title says, this course is about guarding our life.

Confronted with the new enemy in the form of a deadly virus, we have no means, provided by our modern medicine, to fight the enemy once for all.

This is why we thought to design this course inspired by the Lao-tzu's dialogue with one of his disciples regarding the method of guarding one's life.

In short, we teach you the method and offer further resources to continue your study.

Course required information: This course makes use of terms like Tao, emptiness, nondoing, I-ching and so forth.

These terms and concepts are fully explained in our Taoism initiation course.

If you didn't take it, you may still learn about them by browsing this site's pages when necessary or by reading the online Taoism dictionary.
