Climbing and Tao : The Way of the Route Paperback / softback
by Juan Marbarro
Part of the Wisdom from the Rock series
Paperback / softback
Description
Sending a route or climbing a peak requires balance and harmony between your abilities and the requirements of the wall or mountain. If you think about it, the same is truth for any aspect of your life. Any tension can be dissolved if we are able to align ourselves with it.
The Tao Te King, the mysterious pillar book of Taoism, contains teachings on learning how to flow, to adapt efficiently to the different situations that arise, without forcing our way. This book presents this profound millenary philosophy with a different approach, using climbing as a medium to explore and experiment, going beyond intellectual understanding. This is not a book of techniques or how to climb better, but rather an invitation to experience the wisdom of the Tao.
Yin-Yang and its balance, the void or Wu Wei (non-action or effortless action) are some of the Taoist concepts that you will find in this book, described in a clear and simple way through the experiences that anyone who approaches the activity of climbing can live.
