Death is also important, it gives life to rebirth, if you don't accept that you will one day let go of your current body, you will spend your whole life trying not to grow up and pass on knowlage of what you have learnt, and eventurly be buried with the answers to a happy life instead of sharing it with the universe.

[@mastergutaichi]

That's the biggest topic about Yin Yang balance.

[@mansirajapurkar5936]

So true 🙏

[@linnh940]

This!

[@annikamuller8955]

Honestly I just want to hike through the Wudang mountains with George and talk about Taoism 🧘‍♀️

[@George-Thompson]

you're almost with me through the videos 💫💫💗💗😆

[@paolos22]

Very nice notion- however remembering there is no Taoism- only Tao

[@mihinuithompson7474]

Me too📿💗 can I come!!?

[@randycumber9259]

The more you talk about the tao the less you know hahaha

[@tmargaretobrien]

🥰

[@carolebuckle7977]

My Nan now passed on, always told my you must cry to appreciate laughter, sad to appreciate happy, bored to know excitement, rain to love sunshine, she was wise to her own yin & yang, I am yang in personality 😊

[@andrewatha5349]

This needs more views!! George is making these high quality videos that are so interesting and informative, they are much better than the mainstream rubbish people are watching on tv

[@dylhansmith6095]

I agree. I found him by accident yesterday and I'm hooked.x

[@sharonbrisbane3747]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@beverlybelcher3423]

I so agree.

[@heatherjones5936]

Agree 100%!

[@konstantinbazelyuk1077]

The philosophy is higher quality than I have found in many different mystic yin and yang

[@inthemomenttomoment]

We noticed that he said on his own trail, "Some day are we worse than others." WE=mc2, in light of Yang & Yin, notice that George spoke from Yin when he said that. If he spoke from Yang he would've said, "Some days are 'better' than others." It's all there, right out in front of our words.

[@ThomasBricker]

Brilliant job with this video George!!! You are a phenomenally talented filmmaker. And what an amazing service you and Master Gu are doing for the world. I am thrilled to be a new student of your Wudang Taoist Wellness Academy Online. All the best to you!

[@ProfessionalSwag69]

Well agreed! Nice editing and perspectives!

[@George-Thompson]

Thanks so much Thomas. Really glad you enjoyed. it's an honour to have you with me on the journey. glad you are enjoying being a student of WTWA online! xx

[@ginahamlyn2569]

George you are a natural documentary film maker. BBC should snap you up pronto.I really am learning so much from your videos. Thank you.

[@GarettChamberlin]

@@qestn 100% The BBC is practically dead anyways

[@rinhu8864]

Also, living in the Wudang mountains is probably beneficial to your Qi...

[@George-Thompson]

indeed!

[@dancingqueen2466]

Qi???

[@davidr-d9348]

@@dancingqueen2466 Have a look at this video, it kind of explains it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKStg3qKaMljerc

[@lyceumofphilosophy9392]

I like how you provide historical background information. It is hard to accept the message of someone when you don't understand why they said what they said, and that's why in philosophy classes, we start with learning history!

[@jashardwallington]

Cant kno were your going if u dont kno where u been

[@deadalus888]

Hi everyone. My daughter said on the 27th August it’s apparently a day for the world to collectively think about positive thoughts because there’s too much negativity in the world. Hope you can take part 🙏🏼

[@mastergutaichi]

Let's take part in this collectively thinking about the positive!

[@senalidesilva5421]

Love from srilanka🌹asian culture and past wisdom is truly admirable .

[@-Kobe-]

Many blessings to you George and to everyone else that is trying to understand and practice balance 🙏❤

[@trishapramanik8641]

Can I just saw how immensely your videos have helped me to change my stressful mindset and cultivate a more calming approach to my daily life? You and Master Gu explain these complex wisdom in such applicable thoughts. I am so grateful to have stumbled upon your channel!

[@George-Thompson]

so glad you found us trisha! 💗

[@lola.stanley]

You have a way of storytelling George! Love this, thank you for sharing!

[@k8m883]

Your videos are a wonderful change from the current trend of a parade of short clips of random people or visuals accompanied by a voice over. Your love and respect of the subject, place you are in and people you are with shines throughout. Would love sometime in the future a video on the three treasures. Can’t get enough of Master Gu wisdom and your beautiful explanations .

[@George-Thompson]

Hi Kate, really glad you enjoyed!! the second month of Master Gu's WTWA online discusses the 3 treasures in depth. check that out if you are not a student already :D www.taoistwellness.online

[@paulawhite8674]
