TAO SIXTEEN

Empty your mind of all thoughts

Let your heart be at peace

Watch the turmoil of beings,

But contemplate their return.


Each separate being in the universe

Returns to the common source

Returning to the source is serenity



If you don't realize the source,

You stumble in confusion and sorrow.

When you realize where you come from,

You naturally become tolerant,

disinterested, amused, Kindhearted as a grandmother,

dignified as a king.

Immersed in the wonder of the great Tao,

You can deal with whatever life brings you,

And when the afterlife comes, you are ready.


LAO TSU.
