Heaven is in
everything: follow the light,
hide in the cloudiness and
begin in what is.

Heaven is in
everything: follow the light,
hide in the cloudiness and
begin in what is.

If you place your body in the realm
Of equanimity and non-contention,
And let your mind roam in the
Territory of evenness and non-disturbance,
And water them every day with
Fair words and fine deeds of sage worthies,
Then you are sure to progress.

To attain buddhahood we must
scatter this life’s aims and
objects to the wind.

Don’t rely on
others to direct your
conduct. Be determined in
holding to the good
at every turn.

from The I Ching, or Book of Changes
☯️
Keep yourself simple,
good, guileless, dignified, unpretentious,
devoted to justice, pious, kind, affectionate to others,
and resolute in carrying out your proper tasks. Strive to be and
remain the kind of person philosophy would have you be.
Revere the gods and keep men safe. Life is short.
There’s only one crop to be reaped from your
time on earth, and that is a reverential
disposition and socially
useful actions.
