What are the Nine Principles?
The Nine Principles are a set of guidelines for
creativists. Together they describe a lifestyle that emphasizes
creativity, while avoiding many of the pitfalls that corrupt the
creative impulse. The Nine Principles are deeply rooted in philosophical
Taoism. They are an attempt to make this view of life practical
and beneficial in today's world. The emergence of the new interactive
computerized media, Immuexa, makes the lifestyle described by these
Principles viable.
I will introduce each Principle with a quotation
from the Tao Te Ching, the primary Taoist text. I'll then state
the principle and briefly explain it.
