Description: Quoted from a passage of Tao Te Ching, a beautifully written Daoist work that teaches how to bring wisdom into action. Those who know do not speak. Those who speak do not know. Close your mouth. Shut the gates. Be soft. Untangle your knots. Soften your brilliance. Become one with the dust. This is the profound union. No one can get close to you, yet they cannot be distant either. No one can help or harm you. No one can honor or disgrace you. Thus you achieve the highest state of humankind.

Description: This is design for all those people interested in the internal arts, Chinese philosophy and/or yogic practices. This version of the yin-yang was designed by me many years ago for my taijiquan class t-shirts. I added the butterflies as I felt that it conjured up the characteristics of lightness, calmness and evasiveness. [Image is distressed in order to give it more of a "worn" look]
