Letters on the Tao Chi

By Mr. Tsai

Tao, by being in a person, it is his spirit; by nature, reluctantly it can be said the Five Essences in his heart (as we brought up in the past); by energy, it is forever creative for positive outcome in his life.

For us, after receiving Tao, we mean to cultivate it. But many of us take Tao cultivation as merely trying to be nice and kind, trying to be respectful, to be righteous, to learn more to be wise and to believe in God. Such an attitude is at least incomplete if not a total mistake for the Tao cultivation.

No wonder after practicing Tao for so long a time they did not seem to have built up much Tao Chi (energy) inside them. Then, what attitude is correct if trying to be nice and kind, respectful and righteous, to learn to know more and to believe in God is not? The answer is:

The attitude of SINCERITY, STRONG VOLITION, PERSEVERENCE, and FORTITUDE in doing them is closer to Tao and can definitely help a person establish Tao Chi inside him.

Lacking these four qualities in attitude, a person’s good deeds can only be a playful allowance from his ego.

Tao Chi in a person can be easily perceived in his look, his speech and his behavior. Don’t think to pretend though, for a fake flower is always missing something called “spirit” compared to a real one, isn’t it?

I hope every one of us can build it up inside us to overcome the personal karma and be the master of our own life.

To be continued…
