do not waste even a minute of time

The days

and months go by like

lightning: we should value the time.

We pass from life to death in the time it takes to

breathe in and breathe out: it’s hard to guarantee even

a morning and an evening. Whether walking,

standing, sitting, or lying down,

do not waste even a

minute of

time.

 

Put

down your myriad

of concerns and wake up.

At the end of the road it’s like an iron wall.

False thoughts are all extinguished, and extinguishing is

wiped away. Body and mind seem to be resting  on

the void. In the stillness a light reaches

everywhere with its

brilliance.

Killing

should be the province

of the great executioner alone.

Trying to take his place and kill is like

cutting wood in the place of the

master carpenter: chances

are you’ll hurt your

own hand.

the one who fights with sorrow will triumph

chris hondros, friend and hero

 

In conflict

it is better to be receptive

than aggressive, better to retreat

a foot than advance an inch. This is called

moving ahead without advancing, capturing the enemy

without attacking him. There is no greater misfortune

than underestimating your opponent. To

underestimate your opponent is

to forsake your three

treasures. 

 

When opposing

forces are engaged in

conflict, the one who fights

with sorrow will

triumph. 

 

from The Tao te Ching of Lao Tzu,

Chapter 69
