Hope and fear are both phantoms that arise from thinking of the self. When we don't see the self as self, what do we have to fear?.

Since before time and space were, the Tao is. It is beyond is and is not..

The amount that she loved us was beyond her reach. It could not be quantified or contained. It was the ten thousand named things in the Tao Te Ching’….

When nothing is done, nothing is left undone..

The Master's power is like this. He lets all things come and go effortlessly, without desire. He never expects results; thus he is never disappointed….

If you want to be given everything, give everything up..

To understand the limitation of things, desire them..

The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The name that can be named is not the eternal Name..

If you search everywhere, yet cannot find what you are seeking, it is because what you seek is already in your possession..

Stop thinking, and end your problems..

If good happens, good; if bad happens, good..

Free from desire, you realize the mystery..

Try to change it and you will ruin it. Try to hold it and you will lose it..

If you want to become full, let yourself be empty..

If you realize that you have enough, you are truly rich..

If you want to know me, look inside your heart..

If you are at peace, you are living in the present..

Observe how endings become beginnings..

When there is no desire, all things are at peace.

The Tao that can be spoken is not the true Tao..
