  1. Does naming create a schism?

    Quote from a commentary of the first verve of the Tao te ching states " The name possible to express runs counter to the constant name. Without description, the universe began. Our practice of labeling (naming) things we observe in the world create a schism, which rips us from the whole. One name begins two, begets three and to on to infinity… it is without end or resolution. That means without peace.." What is your understanding of this, do names and labels create a division in the whole? Thanks
  2. As said by Zhuangzi the taoist sage. What does this enigmatic quote mean?
