Where did you get the name?

Listen:

  

It has been said that when a monk asked Lao Tzu, “What are the virtues you follow in order to abide in the accord you have found with Nature?” Lao Tzu replied, “This way is The Watercourse Way. Water, let to run, will seek to be the lowest, teaching humility. Water is humble and soft and yielding, yet will erode a great proud mountain, teaching that what is soft and yielding is superior to what is hard and rigid. Water, let to run, will create its own path by way of least resistance, teaching ease in matters of destiny. Water is cyclical; as Source, water is cloud. When Source is pregnant and full, Source individuates as rain. When rain reaches earth, it gathers, congregating in pools until, full, it rushes as rivers or meanders as streams to the seas, the womb of this life. The seas, being never full, become vapor and return to Source, teaching that the cycle of living is the game of Source seeking Source by way of Life. Water knows each of the material states but as ice is rigid and cannot yield. Only with the warm Light of the Sun, ice remembers its nature and again becomes soft and yielding, teaching that the hard and rigid can become soft and yielding in The Light. Water, as vapor, expands and is without form, teaching that the formless and form are not two. Water, as rain, appears individual and separate, teaching that Source can appear individual and separate. Truth cannot be named; I see it and, in seeing, call it 

The Watercourse Way.” 

Upon understanding these words, the monk was Enlightened and would rest in non-suffering the rest of his days.
