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 1- The Indescribable

The Tao that can be described is not the eternal Tao.
The name that can be spoken is not the eternal Name.
The nameless is the boundary of Heaven and Earth.
The named is the mother of creation.
Freed from desire, you can see the hidden mystery.
By having desire, you can only see what is visibly real.
Yet mystery and reality emerge from the same source.
This source is called darkness.
Darkness born from darkness.
The beginning of all understanding.


I certainly don’t understand Newton's law of Thermodynamics. 

Just as Robert Heinlein’s character Michael in Stranger in a Strange Land would “grok” it at a deep spiritual level, we grok the concept of a creative force but can’t explain it.

Thermodynamics is that drive, the border between entropy and enthalpy. 

It is mystery and reality.

In the beginning there was darkness, 
then the big bang collided p- and m- branes
- fired by the force of Thermodynamics.
