Tao Te Ching Chapter 35-7 Inaudible Tao
Today's Tao
Even if you try to hear Tao, you can't hear it. (Ch.35)
You cannot hear Tao. It is not sound waves.
Some might want to think that Tao is a sort of field where the interactions of waves take place.
The idea is seductive, but I find it a trap.
If you mix Tao with the idea of an objective space, surely you will get confused sooner or later.
The famous three monkeys at Toshogu temple in Nikko, Japan, know a little better.
"See nothing. Say nothing. Hear nothing."
It is not only about something evil.
In Japanese, we say that the monkeys of wisdom see, say, or hear nothing at all.
