Today's Tao
Therefore, having lost Tao, there is attainment. (Ch.38)
If you hadn't lost Tao, you wouldn't need the attainment of Tao.
If you are seeking for Satori, certainly you have forgotten that you are in the state of Satori.
After we had lost the trust in Tao, we came up with the concept of attaining it or reaching Satori.
I just want you to trust yourself.
You have never lost the state of innocence.
You are always as innocent as an uncarved block or a baby.
Please do not doubt that you are perfect no matter how much it seems otherwise.
Doubting your perfection and consequently seeking for a refuge like "Satori" is the first step towards the spiral descent into the spiritual labyrinth.

-Not artistically important, but it might be interesting if you want to know about the change of the concept on ambition in Japan. Young Japanese, living in the country's never ending sluggish economy, may share the same idea about love and money unconsciously as those 100 years ago. Who knows! You can observe them using the novel as a reference.
