    Tao is Chinese for what we call samadhi; the
    Japanese call it satori, the Chinese call it tao.

    Tao is perhaps the best of all these
    expressions, because it is not part of
    language. It simply indicates something
    inexpressible, something that you can know
    but cannot say, something that you can live
    but cannot explain. It is something that you can
    dance, you can sing, but you cannot utter a
    single word about it. You can be it; you can be
    the expression of Tao, but you cannot say
    what it is that you are expressing.

    MA TZU AGAIN ASKED: "SINCE THE TAO IS
    BEYOND COLOR AND FORM, HOW CAN IT
    BE SEEN?"

    You have to understand this dialogue very
    deeply, because it will give you the right
    direction for what has to be asked. There are
    thousands of things to ask, but the essentials
    are very few and unless you start by asking
    the essentials, you will not come close to the
    truth...
