Before you pierce an abscess with a knife
how can it heal
and how can you regain your health?
Rumi

Your situation is agonizing now
but it will free you from what has been blocking you.

When our mind is still and quiet,
we are open and non-judgmental.
We know that we belong and we act accordingly.
We are ready for all life brings, including death.
    From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 16​

A still and quiet mind
is an open and accepting mind.
It is not tossed about
by waves of fear,
by tides of desire,
or by winds of change.
It senses the Web of Life
and feels the connections that exist
between every part of the Cosmos.
It knows that being lost, forgotten,
abandoned, or forsaken
is impossible.
So it is free to act
with power, joy, and love.​

What stops me from doing the kind, generous,
and courageous acts that arise so naturally in my spirit? 
- My fearful mind that tells me stories of injury, loss, and even death.
- My wanting mind that tells me to go get the things I want
and let others worry about themselves. 
- My “monkey mind” that keeps me in a state of Attention Deficit Disorder
through its inane chatter. 
But my quiet mind is my natural mind and it always brings me back to myself.

Empty your mind of all thoughts.
Let your heart be at peace.
Watch the turmoil of beings,
but contemplate their return.

Each separate being in the universe
returns to the common source.
Returning to the source is serenity.​

If you don't realize the source,
you stumble in confusion and sorrow.

When you realize where you come from,
you naturally become tolerant,
disinterested, amused,
kindhearted as a grandmother,
dignified as a king.

Immersed in the wonder of the Tao,
you can deal with whatever life brings you,
and when death comes, you are ready.
Tao Te Ching #16

​Ignore those that make you fearful and sad,
​ that degrade you back towards disease and death.

A Man started to break up earth with a spade.
A fool came and shouted at him "Why are you ruining the soil!?"
"You Fool" The man replied,"Go away and don't bother me!
Understand the difference between destruction and growth.
How could this soil become a rose garden or wheat field
Before it's broken up and ruined and made ugly?
How could it become orchards and harvests and leaves and fruit
before it is utterly destroyed and worn down?
​
Before you pierce an abscess with a knife
How can it heal and how can you regain health?
Until the doctor purifies your humors with his cures
How can your illness disappear and true healing arrive?
When a tailor cuts up a cloth, piece by piece,
Does anyone go up to him and strike him and say,
'Why have you torn up this beautiful satin;
What can I do with scraps of torn-up cloth?"

Each time that builder comes to repair an old building
Don't they begin by destroying what was there before?
Look at the carpenter or the blacksmith or the butcher;
With them too, you'll find destruction precedes renewal
If you don't subject wheat to the grinding millstone
How will bread ever come forth to decorate your table?"
