Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The Tao is both named and unnamed. It is unknowable and unseeable, but it is also invisibly within everything. When we desire to see the mystery of the Tao, we must let go of trying to define it in terms of the outer world of form.

#2 The 10,000 things that Lao-tzu refers to in the passage represent the categorized, classified, and scientifically named objects of the earth. Yet for all our technological expertise and scientific categorization, we can never truly create a human eye or liver.

#3 Don’t try so hard to make things work, and don’t always try to understand your partner, your children, your parents, or your boss. The Tao is always working. When expectations are shattered, practice allowing that to be the way it is.

#4 The labeling process is what most of us were taught in school. We studied hard to be able to define things correctly in order to get what we called high grades. But we know, without anyone telling us, that there is no title, degree, or distinguishing label that truly defines us.
