One Tao yes, but the essence of the Tao that we cannot understand is normally referred to as the Eternal Tao. That which we can know is called the natural Tao. These are the same thing. But different perceptions of the same thing.

We cannot know Tao because Tao is No-Thing. Knowers of things only know things.

Friends,
Agree with Francine that Tao is unknowable as a SEER or as a KNOWER but surely one can be one with TAO as NO-THING or a VOID. It is such a space where the mind does not function and as soon as one wants to talk about it the Mind has to function and that itself will never be correct [what Loa Tzu also said] Only when the Knower and the Known becomes one is when one is with Tao.
Yes, Master vigil, space has to be viewed as Gestalt then only we find how the spaces are used in a room or elsewhere.
Love & rgds
