Because he is a living divinity, when he acts, the universe acts.
Lao Tzu
Look, it cannot be seen it is beyond form. Listen, it cannot be heard it is beyond sound. Grasp, it cannot be held it is intangible. These three are indefinable Therefore they are joined in one. From above it is not bright From below it is not dark An unbroken thread beyond description. It returns to nothingness. The form of the formless, The image of the imageless, It is called indefinable and beyond imagination. Stand before it and there is no beginning. Follow it and there is no end. Stay with the ancient Tao, Move with the present. Knowing the ancient beginning is the essence of Tao.
Lao Tzu
He who knows himself is enlightened.

Lao Tzu
