Description
During chinese new year celebrations, at the White Cloud Taoist temple in Bejiing, China; An elder reaches for the good luck or fortune of touching one of Lao Tsu's Tao de Ching's symbols representing " heart or compassion". Unable to reach it another hand assists, as chuckles amongst the crowd accompany the moment after... hence the appropriate title Filial Piety, taking care of one's elders. . Notice the symbol for heart looks like a smile face with a dimple!
