Mskied Posted August 4, 2019 Tao is a present moment; it is THE moment- not anticipation or leading to the moment, but THE moment. It is a presence, it is understanding and clarity, it is the culmianation of preparedness and it is the absence of preparation- it is unity and oneness, and it is Good, for in this present moment is right. It is the highest form of Love, because you are One with All. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mskied Posted August 4, 2019 (edited) In this Age, the world is surrounded by opinion- art, music, litterature, television, movies, conversation- more than ever in history has the world been surrounded with so much information, and yet... it is all opinion; even the enlightened Masters, for they cannot proclaim certainty, only confidence in the slivers of Truth that we possess, and yes, we possess Truth, for it is all True to some degree. We take in a lifetimes worth of opinion without processing what we hear, and so my advice is to take the pieces you possess and work them out like a carpenter, or a painter, or a sculptor- and see what we can form from it, and what the mass of material contains inside, for all of what is can lead to God, because God is All that Is.

Earl Grey Posted November 10, 2019 Seems like you haven’t read much of Laozi or Mengzi because this sounds like New Age hokum. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
