Can you guys help me into Taoism?
I've been reading the Tao Te Ching a bit and some of it speaks to me. The "Wu wei" concept particularly resonated.
I need some better interpretations and more viewpoints on it though.
You need to do less
Stop complicating all this, and watch the sunset

We cannot help explain it to you. Either you will figure it out or you won't. Step 1: stop searching for new info.

underrated post
one of my favorite passages
The greatest Virtue is to follow Tao and Tao alone.
The Tao is elusive and intangible.
Oh it is intangible and elusive, and yet within is image.
Oh it is elusive and intangible, and yet within is form.
Oh it is dim and dark, and yet within is essence.
This essence is very real, and therein lies faith.
From the very beginning until now its name has never been forgotten.
Thus I perceive the creation.
How do I know the ways of creation?
Because of this.

孔德之容,唯道是从。
道之为物,唯恍唯惚。
忽兮恍兮,其中有象;
恍兮忽兮,其中有物。
窈兮冥兮,其中有精;
其精甚真,其中有信。
自古及今,其名不去,
以阅衆甫。
吾何以知衆甫之状哉?以此。
