“We don’t need to struggle to live, thrive and be happy psychologically. In fact it’s precisely our struggling that keeps us from doing so. Rather, the ideal Taoist outlook is to remain steadfast and still, letting the ups and downs of the world flow through and around us. The current of life is strong, so rather than struggling against it, we are advised to capitalize upon its transportive (and transformative) power.”
― Oliver Benjamin, The Tao Te Ching: Annotated Edition
