Tao Poem 15 from Te of Tao: Embracing Life's Quiet Power


15.


Abundance is within you.

Everything that there is, is equally yourself and not-self.

No lack, no wealth, no suffering, no enlightenment.

Only itself being itself.

If you demonstrate abundance,

you will also show lack.

If you boast of your successes,

you will attest to failure.

If enlightenment makes you feel special,

you will manifest ignorance.

The One cannot split into two,

it only appears as opposites.

True abundance

is an outpouring of the creative flow of Tao,

and the real way to show it is to give it away.
