Chapter 7

The TAO is infinite, eternal. Why is it eternal? Nothing lasts forever. It was never born; thus it can never die. Why is it infinite? It has no desires for itself, its work is never done. It is present for all beings -- a precious present. By staying behind, you will keep ahead. By being detached from all things, you remain one with them. By letting go you are perfectly fulfilled. By being here, now, you are always at home.
