Tao Te Ching chapter 1 (FD28082020-8)
The Tao that can be told is not the etrnal Tao.
The name that can be named is not the eternal Name.
The unnamable is the eternally real.
Naming is the origin of all particular things.
Free from desire, you realize the mystery.
Caught in desier, you see only the manifestations.
Yet mystery and manifestations arise from the same source
This source is called darkness.
Darkness within Darkness.
The gateway to all understanding.
Written by Stephen Mitchell , published by Harper Perennial.
