Reviewing ‘On The Warrior’s Path’ by Bolelli

“This wisdom does not belong to any one culture or religion, nor does it come only from the West or the East.  Rather, it is a tradition of human warriorship that has existed in many cultures at many times throughout history.”

July 20, 2017 in 1) Random Commentary, 2) Religion, 5) History, 6) Other..., Book Review, by A.G. House, Martial Arts, Personal Relationships, Philosophy, Psychology.

About TCS
Founded in Austin, TX, in 2012, The Chaos Section is a collaborative writing project with contributors from all corners of the country. Each writer brings a unique perspective, offering insights into a wide range of topics. This site isn’t here to focus on one person’s interests, but to explore the ideas and musings of the people who fascinate us.

Thanks for joining us on this ride.

Obligatory Disclaimer: The views expressed by our authors are their own and don’t necessarily reflect the opinions of their fellow writers or The Chaos Section community. Then again, sometimes they do. Life’s unpredictable like that.


“We were angry and righteous in those days, and there were millions of us. We kicked two chief executives out of the White House because they were stupid warmongers. We conquered Lyndon Johnson and we stomped on Richard Nixon… Our tribe was strong like a river. That river is still running. All we have to do is get out and vote, while it’s still legal, and we will wash those crooked warmongers out of the White House.”
— Hunter S. Thompson,
Rolling Stone, November 11, 2004

PolitiFact

  • Hantavirus news giving you March 2020 flashbacks? Although it feels familiar, experts say this is a very different bug than COVID-19. Here are some facts to ground you.
  • President Donald Trump and lawmakers from both parties have called for suspending the federal gasoline tax. But this has never happened because while it could yield a modest cost savings for consumers, transportation project funding would suffer.
  • No specific drugs are approved to treat hantavirus infections, which can affect heart and lung function. Doctors provide supportive care such as supplemental oxygen. No research supports ivermectin as a treatment, doctors say.
  • Homeless shelter CEO Christine Quinn said, “Today, there are more children sleeping in New York City’s homeless shelters than there are seats in Yankee Stadium.” That’s incorrect.
  • Rep. Nick Langworthy, R-N.Y., said the average IRS tax refund is up 11% compared to 2025. He’s right, and tax experts say it’s because of tax reductions from President Donald Trump’s tax bill.

“Chaos is what we've lost touch with. This is why it is given a bad name. It is feared by the dominant archetype of our world, which is Ego, which clenches because its existence is defined in terms of control.”
- Terence McKenna, attributed


"In the end, McKenna, the Stoics, Buddhists, Taoists, and Heraclitus are all pointing us toward the same truth: to live fully, we must learn to dance with chaos, not run from it. We must let go of our rigid need for control and open ourselves to the wild, untamed, and unpredictable flow of life. Only then can we truly understand the deeper currents that shape our existence, the very sections of life where chaos and order intertwine."
- The Fear of Letting Go: Ego’s Struggle for Control
