THE WAY
http://www.ask.com/wiki/Tao?qsrc=3044
Back in 1985, in the final edition of my newsletter, THE NILE REVIEW, I published a religious, philosophical, theological monograph entitled "Exhalations from my Soul." It cited provisions from the Bible, the Quran, and Tao Te Ching in support of its foundational premise that: "God is." And where creeds overlap and buttress: God is. Today, I gained greater insight into the Way, the path, or the Dao, which as once described and embodied by Jesus perfectly reflects the Dao, western theology notwithstanding. There is an essential unity in everything beyond name or number.
