the world is a vessel for spirit

snow crows

 

If you try

to grab hold of the

world and do what you want

with it, you won’t

succeed.

 

The world

is a vessel for spirit,

and it wasn’t made to be manipulated.

Tamper with it and you’ll spoil it.

Hold it, and you’ll

lose it.

 

With tao,

sometimes you move ahead

and sometimes you stay back; sometimes

you work hard and sometimes you rest; sometimes

you’re strong and sometimes you’re weak;

sometimes you’re up; sometimes

you’re down.

 

The sage

remains alert, avoiding

extremes, avoiding extravagance,

avoiding excess.

 

from The Tao te Ching of Lao Tzu,

remain in the center

morgan maassen

 

Knowing

others is intelligence; 

knowing the self is enlightenment. 

Conquering others is power; conquering

the self is strength. Know what is enough, and

you’ll be rich. Persevere, and you’ll develop

a will. Remain in the center, and you’ll

always be at home. Die without

dying, and you’ll endure

forever.

the oneness gives birth

 

Nonbeing gives

birth to the oneness.

The oneness gives birth to yin and

yang. Yin and yang give birth to heaven,

earth, and beings. Heaven, earth, and

beings give birth to everything

in existence.

 

Therefore everything

in existence carries within it both

yin and yang, and attains its harmony by

blending together these two

vital breaths.

 

Ordinary people

hate nothing more than to be

powerless, small, and unworthy.

Yet this is how superior people

describe themselves.

 

Gain is loss.

Loss is gain.

 

I repeat what others have said:

The strong and violent don’t die natural deaths.

This is the very essence of my teaching.
