Publisher's Synopsis
The Doctrine of the Equilibrium by Charles F. Horne is a philosophical work that explores the concept of balance and harmony in the universe. The book delves into the idea that everything in the world is interconnected and that there is a natural equilibrium that must be maintained for the world to function properly. Horne draws on various philosophical and religious traditions to support his argument, including Taoism, Buddhism, and Christianity.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the doctrine of equilibrium. Horne begins by discussing the concept of yin and yang in Taoism and how it relates to balance in the universe. He then moves on to explore the Buddhist concept of the Middle Way and how it relates to finding balance in life.Horne also discusses the role of ethics and morality in maintaining equilibrium, arguing that a moral and ethical life is essential for maintaining balance in the world. He also explores the idea of the interconnectedness of all things and how this relates to the doctrine of equilibrium.Throughout the book, Horne draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient texts, modern philosophy, and his own personal experiences. The result is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of one of the fundamental concepts of philosophy and religion.THIS 28 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Sacred Books and Early Literature of the East: Ancient China, by Charles F.
