 User Description: Wu wei signifies -- in Oriental -- non-doing or'doing nothing'. It sounds like a pleasant invitation to relax or worse, fall to laziness or apathy. Yet this concept is key to the noblest kind of activity in line with the doctrine of Daoism -- and is still in the heart of what it means to follow Dao or The Way. According to the central text of Daoism, the Dao De Jing:'How never behaves yet nothing is left undone'. Here is the paradox of wu wei. It doesn't meant not behaving, it means'effortless activity' or'actionless action'. This means being at peace while engaged in the most frenetic tasks so that one can carry these out with maximum skill and efficiency. Something of this significance of wu wei is recorded when we talk of being'in the zone' -- at one with what we are doing, in a country of profound concentration and flow.Wu wei is closely joined to the Daoist reverence for the natural world, so trying to make our behaviour as spontaneous and inevitable as certain natural processes, and to make sure that we're swimming with rather than against currents. We are to be like the bamboo that bends from the end or the plant that adjusts itself into the shape of a tree. Wu wei entails letting go of ideals that we might otherwise attempt to force too violently onto matters; it invites us instead to react to the true needs of scenarios, which often only to be noticed when we put our very own ego-driven plans apart. What can follow is a reduction of self-consciousness, a new unity between itself and its surroundings, which releases an energy that's normally held back by an exceedingly aggressive, wilful fashion of thinking.But none of this means we won't be able to change or influence things when we try for wu wei. The Dao De Jing points out that we should be like water, which is'submissive and weak' and'however which can't be surpassed for attacking what's hard and strong'. Through gentle persistence and a compliance with the specific form of a problem, an obstacle can be worked around and slowly eroded.The idea of attaining the best consequences by a smart strategic passivity has been fundamental to Chinese notions of politics, diplomacy and business. From the guides on intellect generated by Daoists, we are repeatedly told that instead of enforce a plan or version on a situation, we should let others behave frantically, and then lightly adjust ourselves as we determine the direction that matters have evolved . It was not alcoholism that they were encouraging, but the decline in rigidity and stress that sometimes comes with being a bit drunk, and that can help us to accomplish certain tasks. 1 poet compared somebody motivated by wu wei into a drunk guy who drops uninjured from a cart -- such is their spiritual momentum they are unaffected by accidents and misfortunes that might break those of a controlled and controlling mindset. https://www.kokoroart.it/shiatsu-e-la-posizione-seiza/ of painting from the Tang period onwards produced wu wei central to artistic practice. As opposed to laboriously trying to replicate nature reliably, the artist must find nature inside themselves and surrender to its own calls. The painter's task isn't to imitate the external surface of things, but to exhibit the qi or'soul' of things such as hills, trees, birds and rivers by sensing some of this spirit in themselves -- then letting it stream out through the brush on silk or paper.
