Worthwhile people hear of cosmic energy flow [/Tao] and study its ways.
When ordinary people hear of cosmic energy flow - sometimes they seek to understand, but often they forget.
When rough folk hear of cosmic energy flow they laugh out loud.
If they didn't laugh, it wouldn't be Tao.
From this we can construct the following :
The clarity of cosmic energy flow appears obscure.
The advance of cosmic energy flow appears as retreat.
The smoothness of cosmic energy flow seems lumpy.
The strongest inner power appears weakness.
The greatest integrity appears shameful.
The protective powers available to us seem incomplete.
The power of development available to us seem inadequate.
The greatest profundity appears inconsequential.
The ultimate security has no fences.
The ultimate holder is never watertight.
The ultimate music makes no sound.
The ultimate image is without form.
Cosmic energy flow is hidden and anonymous,
yet Tao is both the source and completor of all realities.
