concentrate on tao and experience tao

mike oblinski

 

Nature is

sparing with speech: a

whirlwind doesn’t last all morning;

a rain shower doesn’t

last all day.

 

What causes these?

Heaven and earth.

If heaven and earth can’t

make something furious

endure, how could

man?

 

Concentrate on tao

and you’ll experience tao.

Concentrate on power and

you’ll experience power. 

Concentrate on loss and

you’ll experience

loss.

 

If you won’t trust,

you won’t be

trusted.

maintain humility and equanimity


 

A goal may be reached

but only if one’s character is fully aligned

with proper principles. It is always more important

to maintain humility and equanimity than

to satisfy an ambition.

die and stay dead and go on living

this mysterious place

 

To

realize the Way you

must die and stay dead and

go on living. With one mighty blow,

sever the attachments of mind

and self and dwell in

emptiness.

 

Pouring

emptiness into emptiness

like waves coming to shore,

you become quiet,

luminous,

still.

 

Where

before there were

ten thousand entanglements, now

there is undifferentiated

Oneness, clarity,

peace.

allow the higher power to renew your strength

let it go in all directions

 

Your heart feels exhausted.

If so, it is impatience and ambition

that exhaust it. Actively note your blessings,

concentrate on inner truth, and allow

the  Higher Power to renew

your strength.

understand the open door


 

live close to

who you are and travel light

the magic turtle needs no food but air

be kind to fools and children      know your death

the grace of age    the trap of seeking pleasure

out of fear      take time to understand

the open door

 

oracle of the turtle

 
 

 

As you develop yourself you

will inevitably be misunderstood by others.

Endure these times patiently, and they will pass.

By staying on the path unswervingly you

meet with great success.
