Te
When a man has learned to let his mind alone so that it functions in the integrated and spontaneous way that is natural to it, he begins to show the special kind of "virtue" called te.
- Alan Watts
Superior
te is not
te,
and thus has
te.
Inferior
te does not let go of
te,
and thus is not
te.
Superior
te is
non-active and
aimless.
Inferior
te is active and has an aim.
- ch. 38 Tao Te Ching
