Cherished Beliefs

"From a Taoist point of view, it is our [modern society’s] cherished beliefs — that we exist as separate beings, that we can exercise a willful control over all situations, and that our role is to conquer our environment — that lead to a state of disharmony and imbalance."

—Brandon Toropov and Chad Hansen, The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Taoism
