Attaining the Way
The substance of the Way is no mind, the application is forgetting words.
The basis is softness; the foundation is purity and serenity.
If it is to be carried out among people, it is necessary to be moderate in eating and drinking,
to stop musing and mulling, to sit quietly to tune your breathing,
and to sleep peacefully to nurture energy.
When your mind does not race, then your nature is stable.
When your body is not belabored, then your vitality is complete.
When your spirit is not disturbed, the elixir crystallizes.
after that you extinguish feelings in emptiness and settle the spirit in the absolute.
This can be called attainment of the subtle Way, without leaving home.
from Taoist Meditation: Methods for Cultivating a Healthy Mind and Body – translated by Thomas Cleary
