Taoism and Changing Our Relationship With Nature (Monk Yunrou)

Taoist Monk Yunrou is an ordained monk, Tai Chi practitioner, environmentalist, writer, and documentarian. In this chat, we discuss how he became interested in Taoism and how it changes our views of nature compared to typical Western attitudes where we often see nature and man as divided and not connected. We also touch on his process of becoming a monk, the role religion plays in our current society, and why it’s so important we start taking better care of the world and the future of our planet.
