Virtue shall beautify you, Tao shall establish you, aimless as a new-born calf which recks not how it came into the world.

Excerpt

Keep your body under proper control, your gaze concentrated upon One,—and the peace of God will descend upon you. Keep back your knowledge, and concentrate your thoughts upon One,—and the Holy spirit shall abide within you. Virtue shall beautify you, Tao shall establish you, aimless as a new-born calf which recks not how it came into the world.

Today, when your mind scatters, bring it back to one thing at a time, your breathing, your step or your work, and taste this simplicity.
