Tao Te Ching Chapter 28-13 Vessels


Today's Tao

When the uncarved block scatters, it becomes vessels. (Ch.28)


I like this beautiful image.

An uncarved block splits up and scatters all over.

Then, the tiny pieces will get together and form vessels everywhere.

The uncarved block means Tao.

The vessels can be objects or people.

In any case, they are holograms.

Here, we have another fantastic metaphor on how Tao's holography works.

-«The Tale of Genji» is definitely the best novel written in Japanese. The translator of the book on the left is Donald Keene, who is definitely the best researcher of Japanese literature outside, and probably inside as well, the Japanese archipelago. It is quite ironical that, thanks to World War 2, we have this American gentleman and exceptional scholar. He was trained as a intelligence officer. Well, he decoded the classic nicely.
