Living with the Dao

Ten Days in a Daoist Temple in China

What does it mean to live with the Dao? How is ancient Daoist philosophy expressed in everyday life, rituals, music, art and relationships?

Join us for a firsthand account of ten days of in-depth study at Chongdao Gong (崇道宫) in the city of Yichun, Jiangxi Province, China.

Through personal impressions and an account of life in a Daoist community, you will discover the temple’s daily rhythm, Daoist rituals, musical and spiritual practice, and traditional Chinese arts.

This will be an invitation to explore Daoism through direct experience—not only as a philosophy and a body of teachings, but as a living, holistic way of being.
