Taoism and Revelation

Taoism
The thing that is called Tao is eluding and
vague.
Vague and eluding, there is in it the form.
Eluding and vague, in it are things.
Deep and obscure, in it is the essence.
The essence is very real; in it are evidences.
From the time of old until now, its manifestations
ever remain,
By which we may see the beginnings of all
things.

How do I know that the beginnings of all things are so?
Through this.
Taoism.
Tao Te Ching 21
A bit more cryptic and more abstract but there it is! 😊
 ‘From the time of old until now, its manifestations ever remain, By which we may see the beginnings of all things.
You can see that these sages had a deep understanding of the concept of revelation.  They are moving in the same direction as the Hindu verse.  I’m getting excited God wants to tell us that he is here and watching and caring for us.  Even if our knowledge isn’t perfect the evidence points to a Greater Other!! 😊
