Anything created with fake intention or pretense cannot last long.

Anything created with fake intention or pretense cannot last long.

Tao is so important because it is connected to all the life forms - it's related to the whole universe. Nobody can say, "Tao has nothing to do with me. Why should I try to understand it?" because actually, Tao has everything to do with us.
