Verse...................

Do you wish to attain pure Tao?
Then you must understand and integrate
within yourself the three main
energies of the universe.

The first is the earth energy.
Centered in the belly, it expresses itself
as sexuality.
Those who cultivate and master the
physical energy attain partial purity.

The second is the heaven energy.
Centered in the mind, it expresses itself
as knowledge and wisdom.
Those whose minds merge with the
Universal Mind also
attain partial purity.

The third is the harmonized energy.
Centered in the heart, it expresses itself 
as spiritual insight.
Those who develop spiritual insight also
attain partial purity.

Only when you achieve all three -
mastery of the physical energy,
universal mindedness, and
spiritual insight - and 
express them in a 
virtuous integrated life,
can you attain pure Tao.
