Any ideas? images or links welcome...

Add. I was surprised how much dragons are linked to sorcery, black magic, witchcraft... What a massive amount of books about this. I know some of the western approaches to dragons, Sct. Georg, the Arthurian legends and more from European folklore but somehow also wonder about the contrast between our look at the dragon and for example the dragon "we meet" in the Book of Changes. Thou I couldn't assist here it was an exciting journey.

HI all:



There is also a polemic in Clarity Forum, Here:

Tai Xuan Jing - new translation
