We try to grasp it, and do not get hold of it, and we\nname it 'the Subtle.' With these three qualities, it cannot be made\nthe subject of description; and hence we blend them together and\nobtain The One.\n\nIts upper part is not bright, and its lower part is not obscure.\nCeaseless in its action, it yet cannot be named, and then it again\nreturns and becomes nothing. This is called the Form of the Formless,\nand the Semblance of the Invisible; this is called the Fleeting and\nIndeterminable.\n\nWe meet it and do not see its Front; we follow it, and do not see\nits Back. When we can lay hold of the Tao of old to direct the things\nof the present day, and are able to know it as it was of old in the\nbeginning, this is called (unwinding) the clue of Tao.",
