In fact, there are so many people in the West that don't really have a firm grasp on what it means to be Buddhist, a Taoist, a Confucian, or any of the other Eastern philosophies that populate the world.

I have always resonated with the Eastern paths and like my work with the Occult, I found that all these teachings are so very technical and complex.
