Goal of Taoism : One Possibility

Recommended Posts

My taoist goal is to become goaless. 

Living without past or future,

until such things require my attention. 

 

 

my golfing goal is

to swear less,

hit straighter,

      &

perform better at the lie.

First  you get an intention or goal to cultivate Tao , say paying attention to your dantian  so that qi arisen there  leads you to Tao(  有心修道) .

 

Then,  you notice that cultivate qi /tao  in a mindless / no-intentional  way is better  ( 修道無心) .

 

Finally  you understand that Tao   is , in fact, no need to cultivate  (道不用修) 

 

 

If you find  the above  stuff no bullshits , and  somewhat  methodologically  sensible to you , then it is Great !    If you find  the above -said is philosophically sensible to you,  then it is NOT  so great  ,  study  more.
