The appearance of Empty Virtue
This is what comes from the Tao
The Tao as a thing waxes and wanes
It waxes and wanes but inside is an image
It wanes and waxes but inside is a creature
It’s distant and dark but inside is an essence
An essence that is real
Inside which is a heart
Throughout the ages its name hasn’t changed so we might follow our fathers
How do we know what our fathers were like
By means of this
