Man of Tao – from ‘Ukiyo’ (my novel) May 26, 2008
Posted by Geoffrey Wilson in : Book Excerpts,Meditations,Quote of the Week,Wisdom Notes , trackback‘The man of Tao is established only in that which generates peace.
Thus he is naturally like the metal hidden in the crust of the hills or the pearl submerged in the valleys of the deep.
And therefore he does not look on affluence either as the source of joy or upon lust as the consummation of power.
In this way, he keeps his nose to the grindstone of spiritual accountability…
and he is never tempted to mull over the past…
nor is he prone to entertaining wild imaginings about the future.’
