It is true that in the history of human thinking the most fruitful developments take place at those points where two different lines of thought meet. These lines may have their roots in different human cultures, different times, different cultural environments, or different religious traditions.

If they meet; if they are at least so much related to each other that a real interaction can take place, then one may hope that new and interesting developments may follow.

TAO 47- Understanding

Without opening your door,
you can know the whole world.
Without looking out your window,
you can understand the way of the Tao.
The more knowledge you seek,
the less you will understand.
The Master understands without leaving,
sees clearly without looking,
accomplishes much without doing anything.

Homo Sapiens have evolved to a level of complexity that we can describe and begin to understand something so complex, so simple as Thermodynamics.

It doesn’t require a Phd, or anointing by the scholarly priesthood.
The more complex we make it, the less we understand.

It’s simple.  Balance.
Take from here- give to there.
It’s not rocket surgery.
