Imagine

Imagine. No harm in imagining You do it anyway All the time. Imagine you are a hollow reed. Say, a flute. And your seven chakras are the seven nodes for Existence to play its music. Through you. And... Sooner or later you needn't imagine. You will know. The hollow reed has nil say In the music that is played.

The Bondage of Knowledge

In Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu says: When people see some things as beautiful, other things become ugly. When people see some things as good, other things become bad. Being and non-being create each other. Difficult and easy support each other. Long and short define each other. High and low depend on each other. Before and after follow each other. After contemplation, shunyayogi says: Wherever there is knowledge, already there is ignorance. When people think they know, they have given birth to what they do not. When people take possession of knowledge they have caused the great chasm between the Knower and the Known. Misery.

The Way of The Wise

When people see some things as beautiful, other things become ugly. When people see some things as good, other things become bad. Being and non-being create each other. Difficult and easy support each other. Long and short define each other. High and low depend on each other. Before and after follow each other. Therefore the Master acts without doing anything and teaches without saying anything. Things arise and she lets them come; things disappear and she lets them go. She has but doesn’t possess, acts but doesn’t expect. When her work is done, she forgets it. That is why it lasts forever ~ Tao Te Ching
