the soft overcomes the hard

wei wu wei

 

The soft

overcomes the hard in the

world as a gentle rider controls

a galloping horse. That without

substance can penetrate where

there is no space. By these I

know the benefit of

non-action.

 

Teaching

without words,

working without effort —

nothing in the world

can compare with

them.

the wise person puts himself last

please donate to world central kitchen

 

Heaven is

eternal, earth everlasting.

They endure this way because

they do not live for

themselves.

 

In the same way,

the wise person puts himself

last, and thereby finds himself first;

holds himself outside, and thereby

remains at the center; abandons

himself, and is thereby

fulfilled.

the tao of heaven is impartial

todd bretl

 

In the

reconciling of resentments, 

ill will often lingers. What’s the good

in that? The person who is truly good concerns

herself with what she owes others, never

with what they owe her. The tao of

heaven is impartial. If you

perpetuate it, it

perpetuates

you.

good approaches the superior person

electric night, sardinia

 

The

hexagram Lin

signals the approach of

powerful beneficial influences.

Just as the winter solstice heralds the

return of spring, the appearance of this hexagram

marks a similar movement toward light and

growth. Progress and success are

assured now to those who

persevere on the path

of truth.

 

To

maximize

the opportunity implicit

in this moment, it is important to

cultivate a proper attitude. It is easy, during

good times, to relax our inner discipline and fall back

into incorrect thoughts and actions. Allowing one’s ego to take

over in a moment of success is a sure means of ending the

progress that has begun. The growth that is at hand

was made possible by conscientious behavior,

and continuing carefully along that path

is our only means of coming

into full possession

of it.

 

A

steadfast

modesty and acceptance,

whether external conditions are good

or bad, is the mark of the superior person.

In yourself, maintain balance, equanimity, and

humility in times of accomplishment. With

others, remain patient, tolerant, and

gentle. Clinging to those principles

assures you of a time of joy

and prosperity.
