Tao (or Dao) literally means "The Way." It is a term used to refer to a dynamic and interactive way of being whereby one acts and lives in harmony with nature and change. A person following the Tao does not try to obstruct natural processes taking place. This kind of action, and stillness - being - requires great clarity of vision and strength of mind. Wu-wei means having no deliberate (intentional) purpose and implies non-interference in the natural order.

"Laced throughout every day of life, are hidden highways of opportunity, invisible crossroads of time, and avenues for great personal transformation that, if only traveled upon would reveal the extraordinary, the sublime, and the unexpected. Yet most slip by undetected, until there is first a childlike wonder at the ordinary, the routine, and the expected. " - The Universe
"I used to think that the brain was the most wonderful organ in my body. Then I realized who was telling me this." - Emo Phillips
