The Art Of Effortless Action (Wu-Wei)

In the modern world, the ancient Taoist concept of Wu Wei offers a refreshing alternative to the unending hustle. Wu Wei, or "effortless action," encourages harmonious living by allowing things to unfold naturally, without unnecessary force or struggle.

Perfect video, loved the analogy to water.
I also noticed during swimming that it's possible to gracefully move forward when you become the water itself that surrounds you

I love this video! Subscribed and saved. Thank you for this! I have LOST MYSELF to the hustle... Very open to the art of Wu Wei!

This path came calling years ago, so glad I listened. Bruce Lee’s take rings so true.

[allanrajensingh]

Very enlightening. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

Awesome video! Love that you included Bruce Lee! 😎 If people walked away from social media (ahem, Tik Tok, IG and Twitter) and the fake and toxic world it portrays, they would be so much happier and at peace. Yes, we all need jobs and have bills etc but life is what you make it. Stop being a follower and break out into real life. Being present is so true.

I love the music. Anyone knows the name of the songs? Please?

This sounds very attractive and I would truly love to detach from all my possessions and relationships, to go live as a monk on a distant mountain. But how does this work when you are raising a family, making a marriage work, paying a mortgage? How do you integrate these principles, or are they incompatible? I barely have an hour a day to myself.

I cannot look at this thumbnail picture without laughing, those who have seen - know.

But Noone ever talks about the thousands of hours of constant painful practice it takes to get there.😢

just Wondering...did he paint Imany's potrait?

[evitapepperoni]

Don't know how to be water. Don't know what is my inner voice and my ego voice anymore. The more I "study" the more I get confused about all this.

"pointless busy work" to paraphrase Lisa Simpson.

Good video, bad idea using bruce lee, who effectively trained himself to death

You put whisky in a glass it becomes the glass, you put whisky in a bottle it becomes the bottle. Be whisky my friend

As long there is a you doing or not doing... You still dont get it

As long there is a you geting it or not geting it

So the belief in cause, by some action or series of actions is once again shown to be a fantasy... and the fierce belief in their "actions" seems to be getting more immovable, and at the same time the denial of responsibility for the actions they have taken... a real hypocritical circle jerk, with no correction intended. Good job there "leaders" your results speak louder than your words.

This may seem non-sequitur but I think the dictionary is a very misleading book. it tries too hard to concretize many things that can't be. Notions such as control and free will fall way short of reality. I love language but it's an art form and should just be seen as a form of play. Are we really in "control" of anything?
