[MD] Dao-lings

[MarshaV]

Hi Ian,

Ooops.  You are correct.  Both eyes and spell-check totally missed that.  It represents the voice of Natasha from the Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.  They presented some interesting story-telling too.   But thanks for the interesting information.

Based on Chad Hansen’s interpretation of Daoism and Chinese philosophy in general, it traces the history of Daoism by following their treatment of the limit of language. The Daoists seem to have noticed that there is a limit to what language can do and that the limit of language is paradoxical. The ‘theoretical’ treatment of the paradox of the limit of language matures as Daoism develops. Yet the Daoists seem to have noticed that the limit of language and its paradoxical nature cannot be overcome. At the end, we are left with the paradoxes of the Daoists. In this paper, we jump into the abyss of the Daoists’ paradoxes from which there is no escape. But the Daoists’ paradoxes are fun!
