My European Dao

My European Dao is written in Dutch, English, German, Spanish, French and Italian. Not as translation, but as a multiple conversation. Each language adds a different dimension to the same silence. German carries. French floats. Italian sings. Spanish has sun in its vowels. English is precise. And Dutch is honest. Nineteen texts are a homage to Chapter 19 of the Zhuangzi - the chapter about the master who moves without moving, who speaks without speaking. A structure that invites each reader to find their own silence, in their own language. Ronan Rotthier is a Qigong and meditation teacher based in Belsele, Belgium. He writes from a long time of practice in the Daoist tradition. This is an very personal work. Nineteen texts. Those who know why, smile.
