the Tao isn't taoist

The number one sickness of believers is attachment to teaching tradition.

 

There are those who insist that reality is the province of wonderful scraps of paper from a certain part of the world during a definite time period. These are the people who refer to wonderful scraps of paper.

 

These people bleed their lives away interpreting wonderful scraps of paper without ever finding out how the originators of those wonderful scraps created them in the first place.

 

They don't even wonder.

 

How much further from the source of the experience of the creators of the wonderful scraps of paper are these paupers of interpretation?

Beautifully said, and no doubt highly offensive to all true "believers".

 

Why? Because they know that they have the 'infinite' in a little box which they keep by their bed.

 

Only they, and their teachers - via their unique lineage, have the key.

 

Everyone else is just howling at the gate.
