Withdraw And Follow

Go is a game of saving yourself. It is not about taking out your opponent but of compromising yourself. Usually a game is like a life. Sometimes you sacrifice, other times you need, and it is always about loosing and wining. It is really uncertain which is best, to win or to loose? In Go it is logically better to win (as in most games), still the only way is by trying to loose. It is played the same way that Tao Te Ching is read, without desire. In this particular game, it is about playing your opponent, and yourself. As in Tao Te Ching, there is a need of analysis for every move, to think how it is going to affect you in the entire situation. When you read Tao you want to understand the whole book, connect it, which is your objective in the game.
