True words aren't eloquent eloquent words aren't true. Wise men don't need to prove their point men who need to prove their point aren't wise. The Master has no possessions. The more he does for others, the happier he is. The more he gives to others, the wealthier he is. The Tao nourishes by not forcing. By not dominating, the Master leads.
Laozi
Image
The mature person perceives the fruitlessness of rigid, external methodologies Remembering this, he keeps his attitude unstructured at all times and thus is always free to pursue the Integral Way. He studies the teachings of the masters. He dissolves all concepts of duality. He pours himself out in service to others.
Laozi
