| Synopsis: |
This book examines some of the earliest Daoist texts from the outlook of the comparative history of religions and finds a thematic and soteriological unity rooted in the mythological symbolism of hundun, the primal chaos being and principle foundational for the philosophy and practice of the Dao as creatio continua in cosmic, social, and individual life. |
