 User Description: Wu wei signifies -- in Oriental -- non-doing or'doing nothing'. It appears to be a nice invitation to unwind or worse, fall to laziness or apathy. Yet this idea is key to the noblest kind of action in line with the doctrine of Daoism -- and is in the heart of what it means to follow Dao or The Way. According to the central text of Daoism, the Dao De Jing:'How never acts yet nothing has been left undone'. It doesn't meant not behaving, it signifies'effortless action' or'actionless action'. https://www.kokoroart.it/shiatsu-e-la-posizione-seiza/ being at peace while engaged in the most frenetic tasks so that you may carry these out with maximum skill and efficiency. Something of the significance of wu wei is captured when we speak of being'in the zone' -- at one with what we're doing, in a country of deep concentration and flow.Wu wei is closely connected to the Daoist reverence for the natural universe, so striving to make our behaviour as spontaneous and inescapable as certain natural processes, and to ensure that we are swimming with rather than against currents. We are to be like the bamboo that bends from the end or the plant which adjusts itself to the form of a tree. Wu wei involves letting go of ideals that we might otherwise attempt to force too violently onto things; it invites us instead to respond to the true demands of situations, which often only to be observed once we place our own ego-driven plans apart. What can follow would be a loss of self-consciousness, a new unity between the self and its surroundings, which releases a power that is normally held back by an overly aggressive, wilful style of thinking.But none of this means we won't be able to change or influence things when we try for wu wei. The Dao De Jing points out that we should be like water, which can be'submissive and weak' and'yet which can't be surpassed for assaulting what's hard and strong'. Through gentle persistence and a compliance with the specific form of a issue, an obstacle can be worked round and gradually eroded.The thought of achieving the greatest effects by a wise strategic passivity has been central to Chinese notions of politics, diplomacy and business. From the guides on wisdom produced by Daoists, we're repeatedly told that instead of enforce a plan or version on a situation, we ought to let others act frantically, and then lightly adjust ourselves as we determine the direction that things have evolved . It was not alcoholism they were promoting, but the decline in rigidity and anxiety that sometimes comes with being a little drunk, and that can enable us to accomplish specific tasks. One poet compared someone inspired by wu wei into a drunk man who falls uninjured from a cart -- such is their religious momentum that they are unaffected by accidents and misfortunes that might violate those of a more controlled and controlling mindset.Theories of painting from the Tang period onwards made wu wei fundamental to artistic practice. As opposed to laboriously trying to reproduce nature faithfully, the artist should find nature inside themselves and surrender to its calls. The painter's task isn't to imitate the outside surface of things, but to present the qi or'spirit' of things like mountains, trees, birds and rivers by sensing some of the spirit in themselves -- then letting it stream out through the brush on silk or paper.
