THE WAY OF THE ACTION OF THE SOUL
A New Translation of the Tao Te Ching
by Alan Sheets and Barbara Tovey
(Purchase Book and CDs)

SoulType 8, Chapter 35


Take hold of and follow Heaven below's (the sacred body's) elephant*.
Follow and there will be no loss, quiet peace is in abundance.
Food and music will make passing strangers stop.

The Tao that goes forth by words is tasteless!
It is without taste.
Those who think about it cannot see it.
Those who listen for it cannot hear it.
Use it and it can never be exhausted.


* Elephant: a symbol of strength, peace and abundance.
