WU WEI
Chuang Tzu says:
To achieve Happiness
It is necessary to stop
Doing all Things
Directed at Being Happy.
Contentment and Well-being
Become possible only
When you cease to strive
For their achievement:
Practice wu wei or non-doing.
Easier said than not-done.
Heaven does Nothing
He tells us,
Its non-doing is its
Serenity.
Earth does Nothing
He avers,
It’s non-doing is its Rest.
From the Union of this Inaction
All Things are made.
Including:
Whatever Happiness
Exists in this Perfect World
Where all Things come
From Nowhere.
