@Meaningness it's not clear to me why what's on the other side of the drugs would be quietism or something quietistic though2 replies 0 retweets 1 like -

not quietism on the other side. just quiet. quietism is the path / the drugs I suppose

eye as in eye of the storm. stillness there has the opposite effect in the whirling area which I'm mapping to the little opposite-colored dots in the yin/yang. do you mean anything besides therapeutic by quietism? bc I see most yanas as having the same goal...

not to devalue calm acceptance of things as they are, mind you i counsel calm acceptance of things as they are with vigorous attempts to change them

this has been semantic. I meant https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quietism_(philosophy) … I understand your distinction and I suspect some esoteric taoists have exactly what you're talking about
