It is true that in the history of human thinking the most fruitful developments take place at those points where two different lines of thought meet. These lines may have their roots in different human cultures, different times, different cultural environments, or different religious traditions.

If they meet; if they are at least so much related to each other that a real interaction can take place, then one may hope that new and interesting developments may follow.

TAO 51- Thermodynamics is the Birth of All Creation


The Tao gives birth to all of creation.
The virtue of Tao in nature nurtures them,
and their families give them their form.
Their environment then shapes them into completion.
That is why every creature honors the Tao and its virtue.

No one tells them to honor the Tao and its virtue,
it happens all by itself.
So the Tao gives them birth,
and its virtue cultivates them,
cares for them,
nurtures them,
gives them a place of refuge and peace,
helps them to grow and shelters them.

It gives them life without wanting to posses them,
and cares for them expecting nothing in return.
It is their master, but it does not seek to dominate them.
This is called the dark and mysterious virtue.
 

 

Entropy and Enthalpy are the reason for life, the creative force, the driving force.
There is no anthropomorphic god or intelligent design.
Life simple exists for the purpose of dissipating energy.
Our environment, Gaia, is self-creating to obey this law.

The awe of life is the reward of this simple concept.

Thermodynamics/ the TAO doesn’t demand a sacrifice.
There are no required churches and alters.
It is not aware of the complexity we call human.
It does not care about human.
It does not seek to dominate human awareness.

It is there for the taking, without obligation.
