"Ever desireless, one can see the mystery.
Ever desiring, one sees the manifestations."
-- Tao Te Ching
This idea from the first verse of Lao Tzu's famous text seems to teach that, if we let go of desire, the mystery of life becomes clear. Many, if not all religious and philosophical doctrines instruct some variation of this idea of non-attachment leading to perception of truth. However, if there is no desire at all, that must also include that very desire for the understanding of mystery. The lesson is (spoiler alert) that the path is the truth. Dao literally means "the way, or the path." What Unitarian Universalism's principles and shared values do, is lay out a graceful path -- a clear roadmap into that inescapably mystery.
