The Tao that you can name is not the true Tao. The perspective that you think is ultimate truth is not “The Truth.” Like a slippery fish it wriggles free from our grip and returns to the deep from whence it came. Can a person catch the wind and hold it in their cupped hands? Of course not. It is foolish to even contemplate doing so. Yet, the wild and uncontainable impulse that is God, some optimistic individuals and groups attempt to contain within the flimsy and ineffectual words of a particular religion or spirituality. This book explores the mystical quality underpinning life and helps the reader appreciate the inescapable mystery enveloping their life-situation.
