I will introduce Lao Zi Dao De Jing's Wu Wei. This is Wu. This is Wei. Wu means "not" or "without". Wei means "do" or "action". Wu Wei then means "without action".
This definition is a little strange. Note that in Lao Zi Dao De Jing before the Wu is another Wei. So the line is really "Wei Wu Wei", or "action without action".
A better definition would be: "do things without actually doing". When is it "do things without doing?" When doing things without thinking, very natural, not forced.
When doing without trying. For Wei, another way to write it is to add a "person" stroke to the left. This Wei then means "fake". Wu Wei then means "without fake".
With the previous Wei on top, means "do things without fakeness". More natural, not forced. Wu Wei. I will tell a story about Wei Wu Wei. There was a man named Mr. Ding. His profession is a pig butcher, trained as a butcher since little. His skill was legendary, with super fast cuts of the chopper, the meat is cut perfectly to spec. Big or small pieces, always without extras or leftovers. When compared to other butchers, he is super fast super precise. No wasted unnecessary cuts, even the bone has no cut marks. His skill has achieved Wei Wu Wei. So in your travels through life, aim for this goal. Find innate skills that becomes precise and natural without forcing or thinking, like Wei Wu Wei, your life will be full of happiness. |
