Episode Synopsis

Long before Daoism became philosophy, it was survival.
In this episode (1-148), Taoist Master Steenrod traces the ancient, shamanic roots of Daoism — a time when humanity faced energetic predators and learned to fight back.
Through humor and history, he reveals how early “supernatural combat” shaped the Daoist path: a tradition built on observation, proof, and endurance.
What began as the defense of life became a way to understand it — and to walk in balance with forces far beyond the human world.
