Background
A description of the experience
Tao Teh Ching – Lao Tzu
Failing Tao, man resorts to Virtue
Failing Virtue, man resorts to humanity
Failing humanity, man resorts to morality
Failing morality, man resorts to ceremony
Now ceremony is the merest husk of faith and loyalty
It is the beginning of all confusion and disorder
