i fell in love with the Tao,
                        when i wandered the mountains of Korea
                                                                ­                                               as a child.

i cannot name the Tao,
                        or hold it conceptually like religious deities
                                                         ­                                                     unspoken.

i­ love the Tao,
                   when my heart is aflame in the great reality of
                                                              ­                                              now.

            
                                          i am fully alive,
                                                         when i flow with the great
                                                           ­                                                 Tao.
