Taoism counsels you to remain
quiet and anonymous, to avoid attracting
attention.
Mastering yourself is not so easy.
The
process refers to the
ongoing loss of self and the
immersion of your
mind and body in tao.
You must become
one with the tai chi, and one with everything around you.
No ego. No
opinions. No
aggression. No
attitude. No
pride. No vanity. No
petty behaviour. No
cruelty.
Lose everything that stops you from being a pure, natural person.
Only when you have surrendered every thought,
memory and pre-conception can
you begin to feel
humble and compassionate.
These qualities must be
genuine, not artifice.
It may take a lifetime but it will be time well spent.
