Wu Wei, Another look

Lao Tzu’s Wu Wei, or no action is his principle teaching. This can be understood as Without Action. There are two aspects of everything, link the Yin and Yang, there is With and Without. The key difference between Christ and Lao Tzu is that Christ is masculine while Lao Tzu is feminine. Remember Lao Tzu saying about the mysterious female? Tao is feminine in nature. Christ says, Love your neighbour like yourself, Lao Tzu says treat everyone as grass dogs. Christ is the active, the With, Lao Tzu is the passive, the Without. Christ loves with passion, Lao Tzu is indifferent and he had peace in his heart.
One of the principles of all Eastern religion or philosophy is non-violence, not harming. Christianity says Love. There is a fundamental difference here.
Lao Tzu says only when beauty is agreed upon, ugliness arises. Now how do you love without hate in a traditional sense? If you don’t want to hate, you must also don’t love. Here is the catch, you can’t just have the “good”, If you want the “good”, you will have the “bad”. You want one end, you must also have the opposite. That is what Lao Tzu says the Saint will embrace oneness, not duality. To do that, the means is Wu Wei.
Wu Wei is also the key to true relaxations. Relaxation is about Withouts. Without tension in the body, without thoughts in your mind. True relaxation will give you strength.
