Sometimes right; sometimes wrong; always certain!
Richard Seymour is a writer living in England. His very first contact with Taoism came when he asked a question of Derek Lin, author of The Tao Te Ching: Annotated and Explained, and The Tao of Daily Life. The answer, when it came, was rich with knowledge and experience, but delivered with such clarity and simple common sense - with none of the contrived, mystical ambiguity that is so common - that Richard has, ever since, endeavoured to present his own experience in a similar, no-nonsense way.
His path has taken him to the study of the I Ching and to a great appreciation of the ancient beginnings of Taoism: its shamanic mothers and fathers, and those who revealed Tao to the world, maintaining its integrity and passing it on for future generations, and developing, over the centuries, arts and practises that touch upon every aspect of our existence.
But ask him why Michael Vaughan is the most elegant cricketer of his generation or talk to him about the books of P.G. Wodehouse and he'll be your friend forever.
