Just halted my steep descent into severe depression today by remembering that chaos is also a creative force, and that part of working with it is patience and surrender. The pandemic can cause me to be rottenly stuck in what my ego perceives as "not-preferred," or it can grant me the chance to simmer, to heal, and to gain perspective--to resume the flow state where things happen in their own time. Thanks as always, George and Master Gu, for the timely reminders. Much love to you both and to all those who help you get these lessons out.

Thanks George.....I ve been seeking Balance for awhile now......It takes the Dark to see the Light....UNITY will set US free......Thank you....

It’s amazing that you were able to capture those footages of the monkeys. Thank you for sharing with us. Feel like having a virtual tour to peaceful nature with your videos.

Thank you George! Every time I watch your content I remember what a wonderful world we live in, and that peace is not about a place, it's about a mindset. Keep it up

Spiral is the energy of the Universe and it is within us!

My two favorite Georges in one video: Curious George and Taoist George.

Another amazing video to make you think, taoism has opened my eyes up so much to the world

this channel is a breath of air after searching for the truth through channeled resources, the bible, non-duality, and, many many books, Thank you

Only Thank you. So true, so beautiful.

The Yin Yang symbol really should be a dynamic moving image.

I know intuitively that everything is in harmony. My mind is wired to account for different perspectives. It’s like filling in the pieces of a puzzle. Everything plays off of everything in a way that’s perfectly harmonious. Nothing in and of itself is good or bad, it just is.

I heard a stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet, but you sir are my brother

Thank you. I'm swimming through troublesome times with a friend. I needed this wisdom and truth.

There were moments in that video when it felt almost David Attenborough-ish..! Kudos - your video editing has come on leaps and bounds in the months you have been over in China. Oh - and the content was very interesting as well 👍

Many Blessings of Light and Gratitude such peace watching the Monkeys, thank you for sharing.

Your videos and Master Gu both have been instrumental in helping to successfully navigate the current world crisis. Instead of being extremely stressed and worried you have given the ability to stand back and observe. Thank you

Hi George. I just want to say thank you. Thank you for making these videos and just being you. My husband showed me your transformation video and I was inspired to try Tai Chi. I’m only a few weeks in and learning on my own but it’s so wonderful. I am now reading the Tao te Ching and The Tao of Pooh. Thanks for the recommendations. Please keep this up. You are a wonderful inspiration 💜 On a side note, where did you get those shoes? They look extremely comfortable lol.

Love and gratitude 🙏❤️

George, you are a natural at this youtube thing.

I really needed to see this today George, thank you.

You are an so amazing guy! China is the most beautiful and amazing place in the hole world. These culture, nature, mind and faith are so impressive! One day, I will travel to this beautiful place with this beautiful people 💚🐉 At home, I practice Qi Gong and I will never miss this! Thank you George for these fantastic videos! Have a good day & stay positive, always! 💚☯️👍🏼

What a beautiful and inspiring video the best yet. David Attenborough would be proud of your wonderful nature photography and a beautiful message for every day living. Thank you so much George and all the Taichi family up in those wonderful mountains including the monkeys.

I’m so glad the algorithm brought you into my YT feed. I love the message of balance and your calming way of presenting. Thank you.

Master Gu calms me on a spiritual level... i never really let my mind open to this stuff because i was convinced it was a new age fad, when in reality it is an ancient practice that is good for you on a primal level. It has opened me to the fact that we are just part of this universe, the world does not live or end with us. Once we are gone, the universe continues to grow and develop, without notion of time, even if the universe ends, it is a new beginning, even nothingness is somethingness. Thanks so much for your videos, it helped me through a really rough time through remembering the fact that it will not last forever, it has also as i believe, brought me closer to my ancestors and allowed me to start living a simpler life.

BLESSINGS FAMILY

Thank you George 💓

Спасибо Джордж! Теория Инь-Ян действительно помогает принимать уравновешенные решения.

The Law of ONE!

Strong words strong message possible vibes knowledge of old ! love it

🤯I searched for this video hoping it existed on explaining yin yang and it’s literally changing my “mindset”. Stuck in patterns we’ve build to help us understand the world/people, we have to break them to see the world/people as they really are and not the filters we’ve applied to them. Danger/opportunity reminds me of the Japanese/Toyota principle of a problem is a golden egg of opportunity. ☺️

The wolves protect the river banks. No greater proof that linear thinking is a human failing.

Thank you for these videos. They have truly saved my life. I was in a dark place and really questioning the point of going on living when I discovered these videos and truly discovered Taoism. Now I know the Tao is what I needed in my life. Thank you so very much 🙏

I've been aware of this balance since I was a child, I didn't always see, but I knew it was there. When I look back at my, I see a child who had a chance to grow up within two different worlds, one with unconditional love & one with conditional love; one with structure using positive reinforcement & one with structure using negative reinforcement. These two worlds, though at odds with each other, gave this child an amazing gift of understanding (among other things). I am grateful. M

I really appreciate your videos. Since I am 16 I have studied philosophy. Did my Ph.D and studied at the number 1 ranked university, but I appreciate the ease and personal background by which you introduced me to Daoism. It is a good life story that connects personally to the philosophy of dao. Now, I dive deeper and deeper into Daoism and always listen to your new episodes. Thanks

You're a good man. Thank you.

beautiful....just beautiful........THANKYOU !

Thanks George!

I just found your videos by “accident “ . Thank you❤️ You have opened my eyes to many things.

Bless your heart in all ways for all days Brother, thanQ kindly for sharing your soul and ancient teachings of the beautiful Chinese culture. May we all embrace and honour the traditional teachings that serve the highest good of all and combine them with modern shifting thymes to cocreate a positively invigorating, peaceful and harmonious existence. AHO! All our relations. Xie xie, fei Chang can xie. 谢谢，非常非常感谢

Hey George, great video. I love your master. I'm a 53 year old woman, a spiritual seeker like you. I was born and raised in Italy though I travelled throughout Europe and lived in London and Germany for a while. First time I went to Asia was when I was 23 because I wanted to visit Tibet inspired by spiritual books written by Lobsang Rampa. Unfortunately, when I arrived in Chengdu, China, I couldn't understand a word and my friend and I only knew a few basic sentences in English. We were told we could only visit Tibet with a guide and we were asked $1,000 each for the journey. We decided to go to Nepal instead, because we loved mountains so we did three treks in the Himalaya. The journey then proceeded with Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. During this first journey to Asia, I met a lot of women solo travellers and they made a huge impression on me. After about 8 months, my friend and I returned to Italy where my only obsession was to make enough money to go solo to Asia again. A couple of years later, I returned to Asia by myself, stayed in Nepal for a while, went to Thailand where I fell in love with another woman from New Zealand (yes, I'm gay), then together we went to India and... Africa! Yep, prevalently Kenya where we worked as volunteers, but we also stayed briefly in Uganda and entered Tanzania for a few days. My partner used to work in Japan as an English teacher so we decided to go to Japan to get a job. In Japan, I met a lot of incredible people who helped me a lot understanding myself and the Eastern approach to life. In particular, my Japanese teachers, my Taijichuan sensei and my Hari sensei (acupuncturist) patiently taught me how to unite myself again rather than being lost in thought all the time. After 5 years in Japan and the previous 2 years travelling, I broke up with my partner and returned to Europe because I got accepted at London Metropolitan University to do a Master's in applied linguistics. In Japan, I was studying and teaching English as well as attending a Japanese Language Academy. At that stage my life was not very healthy; I used to drink lots of coffee, smoke a lot of cigarettes and eat plenty of animal products. Once back to Europe, I went straight to see a girl whom I loved very much when I was younger and we got back together. Soon after, I had to undergo surgery twice for retinal detachment, after I recovered I told my girlfriend I wanted to go to London for the Master's but once in London I had a terrible health crisis which was then diagnosed as psychosis. I lost everything, my girlfriend loved someone else and left me! I went back to Italy, gradually started to get my life together also thanks to my parents' help. Finally, I managed to complete my Master Online with the Open University. In 2011 I decided to go vegan and quit smoking. After a period of profound meditation, I my heart told me that my job was done and I had to return to Asia. Fed up with relationships, my only intent was to find enlightenment or liberation. I stayed In Thailand for a while to get used to Asia then, Nepal, India, Thailand again, Myanmar (monastery for Vipassana Meditation), Malaysia (meditation centre). Then North of Thailand, Laos briefly and now I've been living in Cambodia since 2016. However, last year I did a prolonged fast, lost consciousness and had a clear vision of Heaven and me in it. When I regained consciousness, I saw two spirits laughing outside my window and another materialized in my room and told me "Ha ha, you will be reborn in Cambodia" then she dematerialized and vanished. Luckily my landlord broke into the apartment and took me to the hospital my body stiff and partially paralyzed by a neuromuscular condition, one eye centre of focus has been obscured by a dark spot right in the middle and I have vertigo whenever I stand up. My internal organs have suffered a lot as well and only now I feel my body gradually recovering. This is an example of when Yang takes over, I was very angry with the system, yes, the money system. In my life I've seen unspeakable atrocity for the sake of money. Today, I understand that it's not money at stake but our energy and the only way to win against energy vampires whose sole purpose is to get your attention, is to find peace in your mind. Meditation helps to stop the river of thoughts flooding our mind. The perfect ying yang balance is a fluid mind where thoughts arise and fall without ever getting attached to them. George, I love you and your master, thank you for helping us! 　🤗😊😁

Warm regards to you and to Master Guardian and all his students 🙏

Yet again, I am stunned. Last night, I was searching for the original yinyang image. I didnt find it. Well i saw it but did not recognize it for what it was. Then today, the very next video I watch, Here's George,and the very first thing he is doing is giving me one of the earliest images of the yinyang. Just a stunning display of that which im searching for not being available when I am pushing but then arriving when I have stopped pushing. Thank you again, George.

I caught that alan Watts clip

Bloody brilliant videos! Thanks George for your time and effort.

This is a very beautiful video. A work of art and full of wisdom. Thank you! Blessings!

At the beginning. The yinyang spiral is also like the spray on the crown of each one of our heads.

His master is so ❤️❤️❤️I can listen to him all day 🙏🙏🙏

Living in balance of various parts of our jobs or normal routine is very educating..

George I’m really loving your videos, thank you very much. I’m on journey myself and you give me inspiration 🙏

It just It. Go with flow.

please, keep making these videos that you share on your channel

Thank you from Peru, George. I hope your adventure is bringing you deep peace.

Thank you once again. I read whatever I could get my hands on regarding Taoism as a young man, and it has helped me find balance when I finally reallized I needed it. Your and Master Gu's videos have brought me much 'inner knowledge' and peace.

Gist of Yin Yang neatly demonstrated by George. Good, upload these sort of videos on and off.

Thank you very much for yin yang explanation.you are very good Guru.

Marvelous.

You are such a great speaker! Congrats on this experience of yours.

Simple beautiful wonder video. Thank you

You are a good documentary maker!

Thank you George Thompson, I can't say thank you enough. You inspire me. Your journey to learn and share, feeds my curiosity and my healing.

One of my favorite channels. Keep up with this awesome content, George! You are helping lots of people.

You have a great understanding of order and disorder in nature. Thank you for sharing it with us. I look forward to see you flow and do Tai Chi in the most inspiring of places.

The yin yang symbol comes from the Fibonacci retracement formula. It is used in everything in nature including sunflower rows and DNA distances. I use it to indicate exits in stock trading.

just lovely

I'm in love with the Eastern Philosophies. It's a pleasure to hear your lessons, my friend George!

Thank you ... beautiful

Always chill me out your vids😍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Thank you so much

Thanks George.

Thank you George! It's so nice to be challenged to think out of the box! Loved it! Blessings & gratitude.

Great video.

I am so happy I've found this video :) 😃 Thank you

Educative George thank you

This is amazing, thank you! 🙏☯️

The symbol is called taiji (great polarity). It's a bit like calling traffic lights ' stop n gos'.

Thanks George, a great explanation.

Nice Yin Yang Chucks.

I love your videos and your teachings. Taoísmo is a way to live our journey with harmony . Thank you for the insightful messages.💝☮️

Love your channel, thanks so much for creating such inspiring, truly meaningful content George!!☯️☀️🙂

Your channel truely is amazing thanks so much for all the work you put into these videos 🥰

Hi George, Thank you for your videos, i would like to share an experience: I was watching your videos since February and began feeling very relaxed because of that "let tao, let go". The last day of february, i went to a ski station for the week end and had an accident riding a sleigh! My leg was broken in four parts, so i was beginning to feel the pain, and i told myself: "-ok now we will try to apply this concept : If i try to fight against my pain , i will only make it worse. My only option is to give up on not feeling the pain." In matter of minutes i relaxed and concentrated on breathing deeply, repeating this last thought , and my leg didn't really hurt anymore. And i didn't have any painkillers until i was in the hospital(3h later). That was like ok . Since then i try to apply it very often and it really impressed me. Such extreme situation seeming so easy was incredible! I spent all the time listening to your videos and lectures on the Dao on RU-vid While i was in bed repairing my leg. For this I thank you so much! I wish you Oneness with the Dao. Hernan w

@George, Great video. Thank You Master Gu & George! You sound like Sir David Attenborough George, Tao Style! 😊

Thank you for these videos.

Wow, this small series about ying yang brought me so much peace🙏🏻🙏🏻

Than you for these videos. They bring me great understanding to this way of living. I strive to do the same.

Everything you say about nature and life energy I have taught myself over the last few years without reading much, it was the apithamy of a six year journey of learning Tai Chi.

Thank you for this wonderful video

It was so good to watch this! I felt calming! Thanks George!

Legend

Genuine, authentic, soul touching, self reflecting, humbling and very well created with lots of positive energy shinning from both of you.....even those monkeys looked tranquil and I hope you continue your journey and may it be contagious to all man kind. Thanks

Very interesting. You are doing a remarkable job here.

Thank you so much for these videos 🥰

Appreciate the Yin and Yang lesson. Its true we judge that which feels opposing, however, the experience will open new doors only if we allow it

Thank you so much for these videos. I'm referring to your videos for exploring tai chi. I am grateful 🙏🌷☯❤
