Tao Te Ching Chapter 12-7 Not that one, but this one


Today's Tao

Therefore, he leaves that and takes this. (Ch.12)


"That" means the world of objects.

"This" means Tao.

Take Tao instead of objects.

That's what Lao Tzu wanted to say.

Nevertheless, it doesn't mean that you should despise things.

They are Tao's manifestations.

Cherish them and love other people.

Geishas are not objects. They are closer to Tao like water and a baby.
