Seung Sahn: "The one who praises you is a thief. The one who criticizes you is your true friend."
It is easy to give out praise, therefore it is easy to be a thief. To criticize is to give someone an objective analysis of a situation with little or no bearing towards your own gain, whether it be personal or financial.
Tao Logic consists of peers who look to one another for true criticism. We do not beat around the bush with each other nor do we do that with our clients.
Zen saying: "The most dangerous thing in the world is to think you understand something."
While there are many things in this world that are quite dangerous, the most unobvious hazards are those built up in our minds. Knowledge is power but it is also a double-edged sword ready to stab you in the head.
Never accept your understanding of a situation to be finite. For every absolute truth, there is/was/will be at least one contradicting theory to challenge that truth.
Lao-Tzu: "I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures."
Tao Logic has adopted this quotation to become the cornerstone behind our philosophy. While the three items seem basic enough, they are much more difficult to achieve and maintain than most realize, especially in this day and age of high-speed everything.
Simplicity: While everyone clamors that they are a minimalist and that they would like to simplify their lives, no one actually does. It is near impossible. The least that we can do here at Tao Logic is incorporate it into the development and design of all of our sites.
