True perfection seems imperfect,

yet it is perfectly itself.

True fullness seems empty,

yet it is fully present.

 

True straightness seems crooked.

True wisdom seems foolish.

True art seems artless.

 

The Master allows things to happen.

She shapes events as they come.

She steps out of the way

and lets the Tao speak for itself.

 

 

Lao Tzu - (Tao Te Ching, chapter 45, translation by Stephen Mitchell)

 

 

The light does not do perfection, it brings the best.

Even if it is imperfect, even if it is an empty, it is the best thing for you for now.

Giving perfection does not bring about growth.

Because it is imperfect or empty, we keep on growing to compensate for it.

If you allow things to happen without being swayed by things, you will naturally follow the way of soul growth.
