A disciple once asked a
master the best way to become one with the Dao... “Look to be in harmony with
your natural environment…happiness cannot be bought or won, or accomplished...one
should know that thinking about eating cannot replace the joy of eating…cut
back on thinking and talking…cultivate a simple life…live with little desire
and no expectation...be mindful of every moment of life, the good and the bad…this
is how one cultivates oneness with the Dao” replied the master.
