Pure Mountain Tao

Lao Tzu said that to attain knowledge, add things every day. To attain wisdom, remove things every day. Think of if you were building a stone wall. Would it be wise to collect every small pebble, every large boulder you could find? It would be far wiser to only collect those stones that are the right size and shape for your wall.

Thus, only collect what is useful. We gather stones of information every day. Discard what is not needed. Keep only those stones that bring harmony, balance, and unity with the Way.
