An appreciation of life, an illumination of three esoteric principles of embodying, flowing, and regulating water through one’s personal journey and narratives of ’walking flowers’--people who walk the flow Jin Young Lim was studying ancient philosophy when he delved into reflections on his life to date--from humanitarian work in Fukushima to studying in Tokyo, becoming a yoga and Taijiquan instructor, and co-founding a non-profit in the Himalayas before moving to Beijing as a Schwarzman Scholar. Turning his musings into chapters, Jin Young uses experiences from different parts of Asia to construct an account of what he calls ’The Dao of Flow’--a way of continuous transformation reflecting the philosophical implications of water. In a series of incisive vignettes and anecdotes, he draws inspiration from classical texts as he relates them to various topics across multiple disciplines: contemplative practices, spirituality, tea, agriculture, biodiversity, art, history, geography, politics, social economics, and stories of his mentors and role models in life.
