The words of Master Laotse in modern language: 

 

M E D I T A T E

Learn to return  to you rself.

Become silent: What is happening when nothing is happening ?

Can you tell the difference between what is happening and

how it happens ?

Can you sense how what is happening arises out of how it happens ?

PROCESS . . . and  PRINCIPLE

 

Commento di mu - ho : 

A short treatise about the elements of the phenomenology of experience:

the non - event

the beginning of the event

the process ?

Apparently the end of the event and the return to the non- event seem to lack in this list...  don't let yourself be fooled: Laotse is not a philosopher who does coherent discorses comprehensible to all following the logic of Aristotle! His intention is to wake you up to the indivisible truth of the existence according to the ' principle of the TAO '. The consciousness of that what is happening is inseparable from that what is happening and the consciousness cannot be separated from the event or the thing of which we are aware. In other words: without events no consciousness and without consciousness no event! Sometimes it happens that our consciousness becomes aware of itself;  and there it is "the fortunate accident" and  the 'what' and the ' how ', ' process and origin ', ' the observer and the observed become one, ' the ' All-one ' or TAO.
