BECOMING

SUNBURST

In bare earth:
seeds take root.

In an empty mind:
ideas form.

Onto a blank page:
words fall.

Through an open doorway:
Tao emerges.


To Be?

From not to be!

  ICON


From a Taoist perspective, creation or 'being' can be regarded as a natural consequence of, or response to, 'non-being'.
A newborn draws breath to bawl out; a bowstring is drawn back to give flight; water is drawn forth by an empty bucket.

According to this view, a void might be said to invite becoming filled, or a question to suggest an answer.   
Creative processes continually incline towards their natural pace or rhythm, or revert to it after disturbance.
