Live the truth
化胡經
81
With
all this talking,
what has been said?
The subtle truth can be
pointed at with words, but
it can't be contained
by them.
Take time to
listen to what is said
without words, to obey the law
too subtle to be written, to worship the
unnameable and to embrace
the unformed.
Love your life. Trust the Tao.
Make love with the invisible
subtle origin of the universe,
and you will give yourself
everything you need.
You won't
have to hide away
forever in spiritual retreats.
You can be a gentle, contemplative
hermit right here in the middle of
everything, utterly unaffected,
thoroughly sustained and
rewarded by your
integral practices.
Encouraging others,
giving freely to all, awakening
and purifying the world with each
movement and action, you'll
ascend to the divine
realm in broad
daylight.
The breath of
the Tao speaks, and
those who are in harmony
with it hear quite
clearly.
