Musings of a Chinese Mystic
Musings of a Chinese Mystic, also known as Reflections of a Chinese Mystic, is a profound exploration of Taoist philosophy attributed to Zhuang Zhou (Chuang Tzu), a key figure in the development of Taoism. This book delves into themes such as the nature of reality, the fluidity of identity, and the limitations of human knowledge. Central to its teachings is the concept of "Tao," representing the ineffable path that transcends logic and structure, encouraging harmony with the natural flow of life.
Through poetic anecdotes and paradoxical ideas, the text challenges conventional wisdom, advocating for intuition and detachment. It celebrates spontaneity and non-interference with nature while emphasising inner peace over external ambition. The book offers a timeless meditation on freedom, transformation, and the mystery of existence.
While personally drawn to Zen for its clarity and directness, exploring Taoist wisdom has proven enriching. This work provides a unique perspective on impermanence and detachment, highlighting diverse paths to inner peace and deep understanding.

Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea- Julio Verne
Título original: Vingt mille lieues sous les mars.
Attention, the book has a sequel and is called The Mysterious Island
In the year 1866, I was marked by a special event, something unexplained and inexplicable that no one has forgotten. Put aside the rumors which agitated people overexcite ports and public opinion of the continents, boats, foremen and patterns in Europe and Asia, the Navy officers from all countries and governments of the various states the two continents were delivered to the event.
But this increased when the boat Scotland on 13 April 1867, being quietly at sea felt like something he stumbled so mild that notice not only in the engine room, install a des because they informed the captain the boat capsized.
Logically this news was the straw that broke the camel because the phenomenon was becoming hostile, which led to the US Navy for a boat will give chase, this is where comes in three characters that does not leave the scene until the end of the book being Professor Aronnax, his assistant Conseil and the harpooner Ned Land, the professor and his assistant invite you to take part in this expedition while I was harpooner crew. After walking to several leagues across the ocean, they encountered the monster or the artifact but when he was attacked by throwing on the deck with water pipes and power such that in just a second half cuvette do deserted of staff. This boat shot Ned Land and Conseil Aronnx, after a long night was rescued by him showed.
What did they discover? He showed that he is a machine driven by electricity, built by human hands be defying all physical and chemical law. A machine that can soak up to 19 000 leagues withstand pressures impressive variants as well as ocean temperatures and deep seas that could be hot or cold, can be without renewing your indoor air up to 72 hours, and have a capacity for a crew of 600 men, who need to take food, clothing, paper, ink, snuff, and a large etc. Of the land and the sea that provides all you need for it to be rare or unique.
But who had built, where and in charge of this machine who was? Soon discover… The first is that the monster is called Nautilus and Captain Nemo who built them. And this moment des begin a travel through the imagination of this cold man running along the Pacific, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Mediterranean, the Atlantic, the Southern and northern seas. And visiting the submarine hunt, the Torres Strait, the savages of Papua, the grounding, the coral cemetery, the passage of Suez, imprisonment in the ice, Santoril Island, Vigo Bay, Atlantis, pack ice, the South Pole, the struggle of the Octopus, the tempest of the Gulf Stream, the Avenger ... And that horrible wreck scene with his crew ...! All these events were held in ten months and around the globe with a total of 20 000 Leagues.
Nemo being my favorite character, deserves more description carved. A disciple of Gratioler or Engen had read in his face like an open book. I certainly recognize its key qualities: confidence, as their head stood nobly in the arc formed by the line of the shoulders, and his dark eyes were cold security; calm, as their skin, pale rather than colored, announcing the tranquility of the blood; the value, finally, for his wide breath denoted a vital expansion.
I would add that this man was proud, his gaze reviewed seemed to reflect lofty thoughts, and that of cough this set, the homogeneity of expression in the actions of body and face, following the observation of physiognomy, was an undeniable frankness.
