Greek philosophy Pythagoras gave us the word philosophy, love of wisdom. He also indentified three distinct life styles: the acquisitive, the competitive, and the contemplative. He argued that contemplation, awareness, awakening is by far the best lifestyle. However there might be other important lifestyle: transformative living. This talk will discuss 安時處順 (finding peace in time and going with flowing) as an embodiment of heaven and human in union. The intrinsic connection between Dao and de is a key to grasp heaven and human in union. Dao is heavenly movement; de is earthly nourishment. By applying Dao and de, one will transform along with the great rhythm of the world. This provides a good model for human behavior. The greatness of Dao is in its ability to transform and change. De is "responding by attuning." Both require a creative synergy. According to Zhuangzi, when you get the Dao, you will be able to penetrate the patterns (li), and then you will have a clear head to weigh or balance things (quan 權), and then you will also gain bodily powers.
