Subj : Mystic Pi Year of the Rabbit To : All From : Mystic Pi BBS Date : Fri Dec 08 2023 02:02 am _________________________________________ / Following \ | | | When the great man learns the Way, he | | follows it with diligence; When the | | common man learns the Way, he follows | | it on occasion; When the mean man | | learns the Way, he laughs out loud; | | Those who do not laugh, do not learn at | | all. Therefore it is said: Who | | understands the Way seems foolish; Who | | progresses on the Way seems to fail; | | Who follows the Way seems to wander. | | For the finest harmony appears plain; | | The brightest truth appears coloured; | | The richest character appears | | incomplete; The bravest heart appears | | meek; The simplest nature appears | | inconstant. The square, perfected, has | | no corner; Music, perfected, has no | | melody; Love, perfected, has no climax; | | Art, perfected, has no meaning. The Way | | can be neither sensed nor known: It | | transmits sensation and transcends | | knowledge. | | | \ -- Lao Tse, "Tao Te Ching" / ----------------------------------------- \ \ // // (") (") *(__) (__)* --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Raspberry Pi/32) * Origin: Mystic Pi BBS bcw142.zapto.org (21:1/145) .
