“The Tao that can be told
is not the eternal Tao.”
Learn the Dao
A quiet practice for learning the thing that can’t be known — committing the Tao Te Ching to memory, one line at a time.
Read a chapter. Recite the next line from memory. The app shows you, gently, what you missed — then brings each line back just before you’d forget it.
No streaks. No badges. No notifications. Eighty-one chapters, at the pace of a breath.
My words are very easy to know, and very easy to practise; but there is no one in the world who is able to know and able to practise them. There is an originating and all-comprehending (principle) in my words, and an authoritative law for the things (which I enforce). It is because they do not know these, that men do not know me.
