Daodejing Poem 35

Singapore time 6.27 am 13th September 2008

Grasp the great form, the world goes back to the past. Return to the past has no harm, it is calm, peaceful and at ease. For merriment and food, traveler stops. The gate of Tao seems thin and flavourless; looking for it, you cannot see; hear from it, you heard nothing; but when used, it is inexhaustible.

Advice message - Seeking Tao is a return to the origin. It is peaceful, calm and at ease. Others seeking merriment and fun will like to stop and enjoy. We are just travellers, so we cannot set roots on earth, like visiting a country and after so much enjoyment, you tend not to return home.

The gateway of Tao is a Void. You cannot see or hear it. However you can make use of it when doing meditation.
