Zen
& the
Ar t of Internet Surfing

Beware of creating burdens
for yourself or others to carry.
Act with necessary distinction,
being both creative and receptive,
and transcending subject/object dichotomy.

The above translation is the work of Stan Rosenthal, taken from Zen Taoism Precepts.
Mr. Rosenthal may be contacted at 44 High street, St. Davids, Pembrokeshire, Dyfed, Wales, UK.

When surfing these sites, think of yourself following The Way, aware of creating a burden to the server that you are accessing or transmitting from. In creating this page, I hope to have been both creative and receptive to the ideas and words of others. "Allow yourself to transcend the subject/object dichotomy by becoming one with the Internet." If you want to see how others do this, check out Cyberculture Religions, on Yahoo. Much of it is cheesy Internerd ramblings, but there are some interesting precepts out there.

I have linked important words on this page, instead of duplicating work and writings of others.

The rest of this page is here to assist you in your search for Chinese literature resources in English on the Web. Please have patience, the links from this page are maintained on a server far away, by people who put the English stuff up there as an afterthought (for the most part):
