This is the zen practice of bare recognition:
"we don’t hang on to anything passing through our mind,
and we don’t try to get rid of it, either."

I've read and follow both the Tao and the Stoics, and they both teach essentially the same things. Live for the moment, practice patience, be empathetic, take time to rest your mind.
yes, the Stoics have a very similar practice, and outlook on life as well.
perhaps the two conditions are connected 😎

I suspect that non-religious practices of mindfulness and self-realization would be similar. Even existentialism encourages some of the same mindsets. All humans can benefit from self-awareness and self-control.
oh yes. existential phenomenology and psychology involve and invite the same practices.
