*by Lao Tzu* >When the best seeker hears of Tao he strives with great effort to know it >When an average seeker hears of Tao he thinks of it now and again >When the poorest seeker hears of Tao he laughs out loud >Tao is always becoming what we have need for it to become >If it could not do this it would not be Tao >There is an old saying, >The clear way seems clouded >The straight way seems crooked >The sure way seems unsteady >The greatest power seems weak >The purest white seems tainted >The abundant seems empty >The stable seems shaky >The certain seems false >The Great Square has no corners >The Great Vessel is never filled >A beginner may be clumsy but after practice? What talent! >A large drum may sit silently but when banged? What noise! >Tao lies hidden yet it alone is the glorious light of this world
