TAOISM: CHAPTER 4

The Tao is like a well: used but never used up. 

It is like the eternal void: filled with infinite possibilities. 

It is hidden but always present. 

I don’t know who gave birth to it. 

It is older than God.

Tao or the ultimate thing of the universe. The nature of this Tao has been explained here. Those who have experienced Tao will say that the truth is highly empirical. No rational justification can do justice with the truth. No logical comprehension through knowledge is possible.  Only if you stumble upon it will you be able to become its witness. 

A man used to say, "Love is a hoax". But when he himself fell, he turned into a lunatic. His eyes could reflect love. His being attracted love. He became Love's witness. Because if we go keep looking for it, we will only find manifestations, one of them being lust. One of them being, care, attachment. Also, sometimes, violence is the manifestation of love. 

Nowhere in the universe will you find Love as it is. You might conclude that Love is a hoax. But when you stumble upon it, you recognize that care, attachment, anger, lust these can be different forms of love but do not completely explain love. Love has to be something else. And it is something else. 

God is the someone else. One who remains unseen in every form. It is the space in the well, filled but remains unfilled. An eternal void. 

The world has no colors, forms are a product of light absorption. The world is a colorless and formless void, something which the blinds could see. Hidden is the nature of Tao. 

Who is Tao's mother? Who gave birth to it? It is older than God. Tao is the excess in God. Something which even the God is indebted to. 

Tao, the ultimate rule governing even God. God remains a supervisor of life. The rule is ancient. The rule which decides the fate. The rule that determines everything. 

Any rational investigation cannot detect Tao. All conclusions regarding Tao's absence are wrong. Metaphysics remains incapable. Epistemology remains incapable in disproving its existence. Tao remains meta of every discipline. It remains the Aether in any medium.
