Taoism maybe seemed occult to understand.The literal interpretation of 'Tao'is a'road' which means that it is for ordinary people to walk through and is the thoroughfare towards truth for everyone. It also said that 'Tao' is something that we use every day without knowing it. Therefore there are sparrows,bamboos in the surroundings of the painting to remind us that picturesque scenery is just around us,and'Tao' is what 'at hand' for us to discover.
