To date, I have been unable to formulate a Zen Response to the Wars in Ukraine and Israel/Gaza/West Bank/Lebanon [ Wars in general for that matter] and Sun Tzu's The Art of War is, for the most part, beyond the scope of the Population's Intellectual Grasp: I think because "Art" is something of a Romantically Idealized Conceit which reduces The Art of War to imaginative, albeit Violent, 'Dysposition'* . The Characterizations of Sun Tzu are for the War Minded, Soldiers and their Commanders, NOT for the so-called "General Public" anyway, I mean, there's THAT .
Here it is where the Tao Te Ching IS extremely Valuable as a FOUNDATION of Perspective, even though, it is Lao Tzu's IDEALIZED Opinion of Political >>> Operations . Still, the General Public CANNOT be expected to delve into flagrantly esoteric Doctrines in order to gain a Cosmic Consciousness that would afford {skeptical} Understanding, and besides, "Too much Understanding CANNOT help you". On the Street and in the gutter this : "Who gives a fucking shit ?"
Still .................................. .
