I had never even heard of it until you mentioned it, and I had to look it up to discover what it is all about.

Obviously, since I'm not familiar with it, I'm not in a position to comment on it. However, it's always interesting to learn about different practices. |

I don't know anyone who practises Won but from what I have read it looks quite refreshing, it incorporates Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism, three great Masters teachings joined together  can only be good. |

Lao Tzu is generally regarded as the main founder he wrote the tao te ching. |

Besides his extraordinary quality of thinking, are there other rare stories about this man?
Just like there are rare stories about Krishna, Buddha and Jesus? |

I'd be really interested to see how taoism and confucianism are combined. The 2 schools of thought are really very different from each other. I'm led to believe that in reality the 2 philosophers (Confucius and Lao Tzu ) didn't really like or agree with each other very much. |

There's no doubt in my mind that there would be quite a few stories about this philosopher and his students but I don't know any. Maybe the taoist section of our forum would be a good place to start looking. |

I haven't looked into the Won teachings yet but I found a Meditation which incorporates focusing on the Dantiens.
I am going to explore it more later it looks interesting. |
