The education of a student of the Dao is a slow and gradual process and
that process never ends my friends. The learning never stops. There are no
graduation ceremonies, no diplomas awarded or any of that stuff. No amount of
effort, money spent on courses, or prayer will make this transition an
overnight process or anything close. In fact, working too hard at trying to do
so can actually hinder your progress. Instead, be the sky that gradually
welcomes the sunrise and knows that there are many more sunrises to come.
