    Great stuff-"Effortless Action". I'm a retired psychiatrist/physician and had the opportunity to live in Bangkok for 6 wks in 1974. Another psychiatrist befriended me, who had spent a year as a Buddhist monk, and he took me through many of the spectacular temples in Bangkok. Now, it is just another overpopulated big western-style city. It was still mostly an ancient Buddhist city in 1974. In my retirement, I have had the opportunity to focus on sobriety, study, and write a book on "Stress". I presented the first of four discussions of that book, "Stress R Us" at a small local college and to fellow retirees yesterday. Unlike during my 42 yr. medical career, with numerous teaching opportunities, this time I was effortless, had no anxiety (which surprised me), and simply flowed naturally along with the question and answer format that unfolded itself. It was very well received and I'm making some new friends as a result. I am 78 and finally my sober, authentic self. Lao Tzu had it right. Namaste'

    I cracked up several times just from the unexpected pronunciations of wu wei. Every instance seems different than each other

    Less is more. Living very simple, has been a practice for me .
    Mind you, I haven’t perfected it.
    Yet I have comfort in letting go.
    Knowing less is more.
    My good friend Kevin was a simple man.
    He showed me how to live a simpler lifestyle. Yeah money wasn’t the issue.
    It was the spiritual side of knowing ,
    Less is more.
    Practicing this concept has changed my life.
    I don’t have desire to buy anything.
    For show.
    I am so much more happy,
    Not having to worry about a lot of stuff, and circumstances.
    That will not make a ,
    Tinkers damn. In the future.
    Were spinning fast enough with
    Technology and worldly endeavors.
    My advice, keep a simple clean life.
    It will give you everything!!!!
    Loving this book!!!!
    Thanks and god bless ❤

    I think many scientists agree that the universe is an automatic process, and then it means that Wu Wei is already the case! Not the mechanical determinism that Laplace proposed but a creative form of automatic process.

    Going with the flow, when life doesn't dictate the direction then go the direction you choose, when we meet resistance then it's time to follow along. Give and take.

    Wu wei (no self effort) advocate getting into a position where nature and serenity move you into your final goal. Its like what the bible said (copied from Lao zi) Labour to enter into the rest. Entering into the rest takes effort and when you are in rest, things happen.

    Wu Weil does NOT mean "not doing" - false translation. BUT it means "NO FORCING " - big difference 😉
