Column Based On Books The Tao of Pooh (The Way, With The Enchanted Neighborhood)

This was a fun re-read for me. I think I first read this back in the '90s when I worked at a big chain bookstore as clerks we were encouraged to read widely and be familiar with as many bestselling authors as possible. I remember "The Tao of Pooh" was still selling well more than a decade after it was first published, and its charm does feel timeless.Benjamin Hoff's idea was to illustrate the basic principles of Taoism using the characters in the Winnie the Pooh stories. It's a quick read,

''The Tao of Pooh' by Benjamin Hoff left me feeling a bit as if I was being reprimanded for being a reader who sometimes spends time examining my life.The book uses stories from Winnie-the-Pooh to illustrate basic Tao philosophy in what Hoff hopes is a cute and instructive manner, and maybe winsomely attractive enough to convince us, gentle reader. However, instead I felt as if I was being asked to live my life with the confidence and supposed mentality of a trust-fund recipient of a major

He is an angry, bitchy man who rails against capitalism, Christianity, science, and Busy Backsons, ironically whom he personifies with his condescending attitude toward anyone who is not an uncarved block like Pooh. I dont know much about Taoism, but I seriously doubt it is so intolerant. I know more about Buddhism, which he disses, and it acknowledges that we are distracted beings, and offers a way to achieve happiness. Instead of showing the Way,

(Sorry Tyler) On premise alone, this book opens with great momentum. In the first 21 pages, Hoff successfully illustrates his idea that A.A. Milne's character, Winnie the Pooh, is a great literary embodiment of the teachings of Lao-tse. Well done. Directing attention to the parallels between Eastern and Western philosophy is not an altogether original idea. Fritjof Capra accomplishes the very same thing with greater skill, detail and poetry in his book, The Tao of Physics. Hoff's arguments are

My rating: 5 of 5 starsA copy of The Tao of Pooh was provided to me by Tantor Media for review purposes."...the basic Taoism that we are concerned with here is simply a particular way of appreciating, learning from, and working with whatever happens in everyday life. From the Taoist point of view, the natural result of this harmonious way of living is happiness."There are some things that I've accepted that my brain is just not built to understand. Calculus and Economics are a couple of

Very cute, but I think this dragged on a little at times. It wasn't very memorable, and had it been so I think this would have made more of an impact on me.
