Gateway to Mystery

The Tao that can be told
is not the eternal Tao.

The name that can be named
is not the eternal name.

The nameless is the beginning
of heaven and earth.

The named is the mother
of ten thousand things.

Ever desireless,
one can see the mystery.

Ever desiring,
one can see the manifestations.

These two spring
from the same source
but differ in name;

this appears as darkness.

Darkness within darkness.

The gate to all mystery.



Lao Tsu, Tao Te Ching, Chapter 1
Translated by Gia Fu Feng and Jane English, Vintage Books, 1972
