Today's Tao
Our side dare not advance one inch, but retreat one foot. (Ch.69)
Don't try to advance.
Never mind retreating.
In Taoism, advance is retreat, and retreat is advance. (☞See Advance = Retreat 40-7)
If you want to go forward, go backward.
If you want to get something, give something.
This is the way a hologram functions.
There are two raisons d'être of a hologram:
1. To give us an opportunity to receive Love (=Tao) through the hologram.
2. To stimulate us to emit Love (=Tao).
This bilateral exchange of the fundamental energy Tao may explain why a hologram "seems" to work that way.
But remember?
There is no space in Tao.
There is neither distance nor direction.
How can you advance or retreat there?
