Tao Te Ching Chapter 52-6 Opened holes


Today's Tao

If you open its holes and do its jobs, you will never be saved. (Ch.52)


Let's do as Nikko's three monkeys do.

See nothing.

Hear nothing.

Say nothing.

Not only something evil, but also something "right".

Don't listen to those righteous people.

Don't watch TV.

Don't pay attention to the outside world because it is just your inside world.

If you do so, you will never be saved, says Lao Tzu.

What is the salvation here?

It is to remember that true You are Tao which creates the hologram (=the world).

If you open your holes, it gets more difficult for you to remember it.

Tao answers your question!



☞"See no evil. Say no evil. Hear no evil." Sometimes, the names of the three famous monkeys in Nikko, Japan, are translated as this, but it is not precise, or rather it seems that they has been intentionally mistranslated this way to avoid criticism. A better translation of "Mizaru, Iwazaru, Kikazaru" is "See nothing. Say nothing. Hear nothing." Not just something evil, we are supposed to see, say, or hear nothing. No judgement, please.
