"...it is so little we know of pleasure,
Pleasure that lasts as the snow."
Kenneth Patchen
Worldly pleasure, that fleeting, sensory bliss. Does it really give a life calm, peace, joy and true serenity? When it subsides, and it does, what is left? Another experience that leaves one bereft and wanting more.
The physical is but one aspect of pleasure. To seek the Tao ever present in Its creation is to find a lasting bliss. It gives all, that is what Its nature is. It gives to us Its essence. To be aware of Its presence in all that we behold, touch, taste and hear is knowing that which is lasting, that which gives true peace and joy.
