01.09.1998 - Interpretation of dali48
To enact laws is the safest way to produce criminals! - Who would want to steal, cheat or fight wars, in a society where greed and ambition would be unknown? ... (J. Blofeld)

Disgusted by a world of cruelty and greed, we came here to live in such a way as for city dwellers or people with family ties, it would hardly be possible! ... From childhood on, we are taught that wealth is the most important of all, and so we work from early morning till late at night, to accumulate still more of it, and are dispensing with all kinds of nice things, because we pursue that, which is falsely called as a precondition for a good life! - How is it profoundly wrong yet! - When I spoke to my sons of the wisdom of self-restraint and tried to make them understand, to feel how much richer they would be, if they learned to have few needs, - then they surely thought to themselves, I had lost my mind! - I myself have never been wealthy, and they must believe, therefore, that wealth is a curse, but I doubt that the sufferings of the rich (why can’t they share etc.? - d.48) are harder to bear than the misery of the poor (too much of anything is nearly as bad as too little, see polarization in all areas, - e.g. between cold and too hot climate, etc., - that is, for me to share everything with each other as the air we breathe, see e.g. nuns & monks etc. - d.48)! ... Loss brings gain, - too much creates confusion! ... (Lao-tse)

Retrospectively considered or in the memory of reality, it seems to me like a dream, which is unreal! - Does It mean that, conversely, that future reality seems to me as a vision in my dreams? ... (dali48)

Systems of reward and punishment create more problems than they eliminate! - The very idea that there would be such a thing as duty and virtue, is harmful, because by “the rights defined”, it also represents the category of “wrong”! - We live by the principle of "wu-wei" (non-action), ie, we avoid any activity that does not follow spontaneously from the present circumstances! - What wonders could be accomplished, the tragic failures could be avoided if teachers just did this in school (and would follow the talents of the students etc. - d.48)! ... 
It's best to ask the venerable “bamboo-needle hermit.” - A homeless man from childhood, he is truly an “Immortal, who lives in the clouds,” - a living “by moonbeams and dew”, as they say. - “Tao” means mother of wealth! - The world of corrupt officials, rapacious businessmen and police officers, who like to shoot, seemed here (hermitage), as far removed as an alien planet! - A formal behavior shows a lack of loyalty and true love! - Viewed correctly, then every detail of life and nature, is an equally unfathomable mystery as any other mystery, you could call! - So why should our teaching (Tao) to be especially mysterious? - Or really more "do it not!" - because it is an essential feature of the Taoists to avoid each calculated act and react only to the needs of the moment! - The beginning of being the world is called the mother of the world. - Whoever finds his mother (see e.g. Paradise, Garden Eden, Mother Earth etc - d.48) will see his childhood again, and preserve his mother, and so will not come in no danger, if his “Ego” is fading! ... (Tao Te Ching)
 
30.10.1998 – Interpretation of dali48
The two most important aspects to understand the “Tao” are: 
1st that nothing happens, ever the same again!
 2nd This huge fabric consists of permanent changes, but doesn’t change itself! - It is the archetype of time, being and nonbeing (see life and death, etc. - d.48) inclusive, the present, the future and the past! - It's the big picture of ongoing duration, boundless space and endless change! ... (P. Rawson / L. Legeza)

Since "Zen" targets its view over the symbols out on the things themselves, it recognizes all our prejudices about skin color, gender, and age, - and all other culture-related doctrines as a pure work of man, as not belonging properly to the nature of things! ... (S. W. Holmes / C. Horioka)

“Zen” means a fusion of Buddhism and Shintoism, etc. (dali48)

Everything exists according to its own nature! - Our individual perceptions of value, accuracy, beauty and dimension exist only in our head (so the head should be washed, etc. - d.48), nowhere else! ...
Man is a child of nature and gets along best when he works hand in hand with it, - rather then to dominate it! ...
Security and immutability are chimeras of the “ego” dominated consciousness, - and do not exist in nature! - To accept the uncertainty and yield to the unknown, - creates a saving faith in "the whole" ...
One can only live in the present moment! - The lively scene and the words about it, are not the same, - and should not be treated as equal! ...

Fields and mountains, - the snow took them away. - Nothing remains! ... (A "Haiku" by Yoso)

But in all events, there is no permanent unchanging soul. - Do not quarrel with this idea. - Simply give space to it. - And then enjoy the peace that it brings with it! ...

Rainy season! - The entrance flooded, and there are splashing frogs ... (Sampu)

The moon drifted in a cloud: Should I not borrow me a small juicy melon?... (Shiki)

There is no “ego” in the sense of a persistent, unchanging soul or personality, who temporarily lives in a body! ...
The lively “ego” is constantly changing. - Live now! - Accept yourself, as you are now! - No one is only blamed or only praised! -
Because of this “ego” is purely imaginary, we can easily ascribe to it a stable and eternal nature! - Our need for security leads us to believe that fact! - If the “ego” is the center of our world, the acceptance of its mortality would make shake our whole world! ...
In short, we pay for the illusion of an unchanging “ego,” - in that we have to constantly litigate against our environment! ...

The water is flowing! - We are living (ie living means flowing etc. - d.48) ... 
The last nightingale sings  in a thicket of young bamboo, a song of age! ... (Basho)
True insight comes not from special knowledge, from membership of the exclusive circles of doctrines and dogmas. - It arises from preconscious intuitions of what we truly are, from our original wisdom!...
No more oil (see e.g. electricity, etc. - d.48) to read, so off to bed! - Ah! My moonlight-pillow ... (Basho)

You silly scarecrow! - Just below your feet the birds peck the rice ... (Yayu)

Their names I do not know, but every weed - has its delicate flower ... (Sampu)
