Utilizing The Human Body for Memory Palaces-Japanese Mono Obo
Silly Mandarin Memory System-based on Japanese- Mono oboe no hiden.
That basically translate as Secret Memory Techniques.
Michael Gurner has produced translations in two volumes under that title in English, Book 1 and Book 2. They're on Amazon.
"The way that is bright seems dull;
The way that leads forward seems to lead backward;
The way that is even seems rough.
The highest virtue is like the valley;
The sheerest whiteness seems sullied;
Ample virtue seems defective;
Vigorous virtue seems indolent;
Plain virtue seems soiled;
The great square has no corners.
The great vessel takes long to complete;
The great note is rarefied in sound;
The great image has no shape."
That's from the Tao Te Ching.
