∞ clearing the clutter ∞
posted: Sun, Sep 4, 2005 05:59:30 PM

 

here i sit waiting for a plane to takre me away from the stimulation of world convention and into a tone more lines and service counters. i am hoping that i am spiritually charged up enough to allow myself to flow through the rest of the afternoon without hurting anyone i will interact with.
i am feeling good, a bit stressed and ready to get away from it all. the reading seems days away from now but i do remember that it is aboujt making my amends, letting go of my resentments and cleaning my spiritual house. so i will take the suggestion and see if i can get through this day without needing tro clean up anything else.

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

THE TAO TEH KING, OR THE TAO AND ITS CHARACTERISTICS
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 2

1) He whose boldness appears in his daring (to do wrong, in defiance
of the laws) is put to death; he whose boldness appears in his not
daring (to do so) lives on. Of these two cases the one appears to
be advantageous, and the other to be injurious. But

When Heaven's anger smites a man,
Who the cause shall truly scan? On this account the sage feels a difficulty
(as to what to do in the former case).
