Elusive, But Never Exhausted

"Hold on to the great image, And the whole world follows, Follows unharmed, Content and completely at peace. Music and food make the traveler halt. But words spoken about the Way have no taste. When looked at, there's not enough to see. When listened to, there's not enough to hear. When used, it is never exhausted."

"Hold on to the great image, And the whole world follows, Follows unharmed, Content and completely at peace. Music and food make the traveler halt. But words spoken about the Way have no taste. When looked at, there's not enough to see. When listened to, there's not enough to hear. When used, it is never exhausted."
