    7. Chinese Culture
    Promoting Taoism as a philosophy.
    http://www.openface.ca/~dstephen/chphil.htm
    Jump to Fun and painless way to learn about Chinese Philosophy Confucius said, "Respect the gods and the devils but keep them at a distance."
    Preamble
    I am interested in, but far from being an expert of, oriental philosophies. The purpose of this section is to help promote Buddhism and Taoism as philosophies and at the same time dispel the general perception that Buddhism and Taoism are mere idol worships, incense burning and fortune telling. I am neither a Buddhist nor a Taoist and do not agree with everything they say. For buddhism, I am intrigued by the way they look at nature. I am attracted to their idea that: "Emptiness or Imperceptibles" (Huon/Kung) Sunyata is the "real world", imperceptible to our senses ; "Form" (Sik) is our "perception" of the "Impercetibles" ; and finally, , is the "representations" we made from the "forms" we have in our minds. This is very similar to the Quantum Mechanical view of: Huon= wave function before a measurement; Sik=result of the measurement ; Shan=representation of the result of the measurement.
    As to Taoism, I am drawn to it by their idea of an "Indifferent Universe". (The universe does not give a damn !) It is up to the "Sage"; or a "Benevolent Ruler" to make life better for everyone.

    http://www.asiawind.com/hakka/
    Hakka - An Important Element of Chinese Culture Established 1995
    Asiawind.com

    Updated : 10/23/02 Hakka Forum News History Language ... America
    Who are the Hakkas?
    During the last hundred years or so, Hakka people migrated to South East Asia, East Africa, Europe (Holland, United Kingdom, France, Germany..), South America (Brazil, Trinidad...) Canada, US. About 7% of the 1.2 billion Chinese clearly state their Hakka origin or heritage. However, the actual number may be more as many Hakka Han who settled along the path of migration assimilate with the local people. The Hakka identity is gradually lost.
    Hakka people are noted for their preservation of certain cultural characteristics that could be traced to pre-Qin period (about 2200 years ago) as expressed in the custom, foods, spoken language, etc.
    Hakka people are also known to be very adamant in defending their cultural heritage, which was the reason for their migration to flee from the "northern" influence at that time.
    As a late comer to places initially occupied by locals, Hakkas usually had to struggle and survive on the less desirable lands. Thus, Hakka people are well-known for their perseverance even in the most adverse environment.

    http://www.acchs.edu/
    The goal of the Academy of Chinese Culture and Health Sciences is to provide its students a professional graduate education in Traditional Chinese Medicine, with the skills necessary to obtain licensure and become competent primary health care providers. Established in 1982, It is the ACCHS belief that diligent practice of particular disciplines enables students to cultivate health, well-being, and inner harmony. ACCHS also strives to provide its students with roots for the development of self-awareness and growth, through the practice of Taiji, Qi Gong, and meditation. It is our hope that training students in these disciplines, while increasing their understanding of human nature, will help them to make a significant contribution towards the development, wellness, and prosperity of humanity. - ACCHS 2002
    ACCHS Campus. 1601 Clay St. Oakland, CA.
    The principle underlying the formation of the Academy of Chinese Culture and Health Sciences is the Tao of nature, the theory of Yin-Yang, and the principles of the oneness of the universal, earth, and human being by the deepest meaning of the classical Chinese culture....

    Traditional Chinese Culture in Taiwan :
    Chinese Dance
    The Art of Chinese Dance
    Most people use sound to communicate in their everyday life, but a dancer on stage uses his limbs and body to do the same thing. Just like the Chinese language, Chinese dance has its own unique vocabulary, semantics, and syntactic structure that enable a dancer on stage to fully express his thoughts and feelings with ease and grace. The art of Chinese dance traces its origins to even before the appearance of the first written Chinese characters. Ceramic pots have been unearthed in the Sun Chia Chai excavation site in Ta-tung County of the western Chinese province of Chinghai that depict colorful dancing figures. A study of these archaeological artifacts reveals that people of the Neolithic Yang-shao culture of around the fourth millennium B.C. already had choreo graphed group dances in which the participants locked arms and stamped their feet while singing to instrumental accompaniment. Chinese dance was divided into two types, civilian and military, during the Shang and Chou periods of the first millennium B.C. In civilian dance, dancers held feather banners in their hands, symbolizing the distribution of the fruits of the day's hunting or fishing. This gradually developed into the dance used in the emperor's periodic sacrificial rituals held outside the city, and other religious rituals.

    • Course Description The Course This module is an introduction to Chinese culture. The approach will be one which sees culture as the system of shared ideas and meanings, explicit and implicit, which a people use to interpret the world and which serve to pattern their behavior [Patricia Ebrey]. This concept of culture includes an understanding of the art, literature, and history of a society, but also less tangible aspects such as attitudes, prejudices, folklore and so forth. With China we will find a tradition of civilization marked for over 3000 years by the use of writing, urbanization, a developed artistic culture, social stratification
