Yes, but not as if that’s the only ideal way to be in the world. It definitely needs to be balanced with being proactive in certain things* ... to the trick lies in where to expend the energy of doing that.
Wu wei, not that i practice it nearly as much as i should, allows for more energy to be spent where it’s more important… since you don’t spend too much going with the flow, unless of course, that means resisting your own flow in some other – possibly active – direction.
It’s really a good motivation to check our natural tendency to want to control what affects us, which otherwise can be kinda egoistical.
But there’s so many things which should not exist, toxins which have poisoned the river of life (tao), which unknowingly most of us allow to grow stronger and stronger as we become ‘infected’ by them and thus a part of its sway. We have a lot of natural tendencies to just go along with those, so we need conscious – intentional – action to reclaim ourselves and the culture/society/ecosystems we’re a part of.
That’s not a contradiction, btw – at least if you free yourself from either/or thinking-by-default & allow this-*and-that thinking to take its place next to either/or as possibilities of everything.
