Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.
Tara Singh
Nothing Real Can Be Threatened

I think the most essential thing in one's life is silence.
What is silence?
We think if we are quiet, we are silent.
But we must come to silence without desire and wanting,
otherwise we are not silent.
~ Tara Singh

All wordings below
from William Martin
See end of post for link

We are all forms
of the formless mystery of Tao.
We are nurtured and sustained by it,
and our form will return to it.
From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 51

The old Zen question,
“What was your form
before you were born?”
Has no logical answer.
My conditioned mind
works its way back in time,
and hits a place beyond which
it cannot go.

The same mind works its way forward,
and again hits a place it cannot go.
But the idea that the consciousness
I see as me, began at birth and will end at death
has no real logic either.
So the answer to the question is…?

So many of our conditioned beliefs about what’s after death,
come from the mind’s attempt to project our present experience of life
into places the projection will not go.
But that does not mean there is no answer to these eternal conundrums.
It simply means that the answer is not available to my conditioned mind.
Even my glimpses of the deeper, “Tao Mind,”
do not provide a logical linear answer.

This deeper Mind does however tell me that the conceit that consciousness begins and ends with this form called, “Bill,” is in error.
Ancient mariners used maps that showed uncharted waters as,
“Beyond here there be dragons!”
That’s what my conditioned mind sees
when it attempts to go where it can never venture.
We’ll see some day.

The Tao guides without controlling.
From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 51
All wordings on this post are from William Martin

The guidance of the Tao
is not the kind of guidance I am used to.
I’ve been trained to look for right roads
and wrong roads.
Guidance is supposed to keep my feet
firmly planted on the right ones.
The ever-present guidance of the Tao
is far more subtle, and ultimately
far more useful.
It speaks through every living thing
in every moment of my life,
whispering wisdom my ears
are ill-equipped to hear.
If I truly want this guidance,
I’ll have to pay better attention.

It’s vibrations are filled with information and wisdom
that help us make choices with greater clarity.
Whatever path we choose is connected to every other path
and guidance is always available if we learn to see and hear.

The Tao nurtures us without owning us.
From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 51

See Read More at end of photos
for William Martin's TAO

A river does not own the fertile valley
through which its path meanders.
The spring rain does not own
the lilies which spring from its presence.
The entire Cosmos showers me
with blessings akin to the river and rain.

It is a paradox:
I belong to the Earth,
to the Tao,
and to the Cosmos;
yet they claim no ownership.

My belonging is something far deeper
than ideas of possession and title deeds,
controls and claims.
It is the interdependent nature of existence itself.

We’re not used to finding guidance in the passing of a young deer through the underbrush
or in the morning visit of a pair of Ravens.
The movement of clouds across the sky or the flow of traffic on the county road
are simply background events to our minds.
Yet every word, encounter, and event that flows through our day
is part of the web of life.
Tune in to this web.
It’s vibrations are filled with information and wisdom
that help us make choices with greater clarity.
Whatever path we choose is connected to every other path
and guidance is always available if we learn to see and hear.

SOULS' SILENT WAYS "...have two wings to fly..." Sunrise/Afternoon May 29, 2017

SOULS’ SILENT WAYS
SOURCING ALL LIFE’S COMMUNIONS
ew
3:19 AM-5/29/17

Silence is an ocean.
Speech is a river.

Traditional words are just babbling
in that presence, and babbling is a substitute
for sight.

Rumi

(all Rumi quotes today are from my heart's memory
found here as well:
https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Rumi

When the remedy you have offered only increases the disease,
then leave him who will not be cured,
and tell your story to someone who seeks the truth.
Rumi

Disputational knowing wants customers.
It has no soul.
Rumi

God turns you from one feeling to another and teaches by means of opposites,
so that you will have two wings to fly, not one.
Rumi

When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk
into the language-river. Listen to the ocean,
and bring your talky business to an end.
Rumi

A man once asked Rumi,
"Why is it you talk so much about silence?"
His answer:
"The radiant one inside me has never said a word.”
― Coleman Barks,
The Soul of Rumi: A New Collection of Ecstatic Poems

AFTERNOON.........................

Love said to me,
there is nothing that is not me.
Be silent.
Rumi

Observe the wonders as they occur around you.
Don't claim them. Feel the artistry
moving through, and be silent.
Rumi

This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say.
I don't plan it.
When I'm outside the saying of it,
I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
Rumi

« When you look at the sun, the center of our solar system, try to find the center in you:
your spirit – almighty, wise, omniscient, universal love –
and draw nearer to it every day!
While you remain disconnected from the center, you will be tossed around,
at the mercy of the winds and storms that blow throughout the world.
Of course, you will tell me that your daily tasks force you to leave the center
to go to your activities at the periphery.
Yes, but moving away from the center, when necessary,
does not mean cutting the connection with the center.

On the contrary, the more activities we have in the world – the periphery –
the stronger should be the link with the center, with the spirit.
It is from this center that you receive the energy,
light and peace you need to carry out these activities.
And the sun helps you to maintain the link with the center within you. »

Honoring the Tao is neither a duty
nor a test of loyalty.
Every form in the Cosmos honors the Tao
in the simple act of being.

As you provide a temple of refuge for the tired children of the heart to dwell,
the gates to the mandala open and you will see just how relentless love is.
It will never stop sending its emissaries here to find you,
as the ultimate act of mercy and grace,
to remind you of your innocence
and your vast, majestic wholeness.

2:12 AM-5/27/17

May what I do flow from me like a river,
no forcing and no holding back,
the way it is with children.
–Rainer Maria Rilke

Have you also learned that secret from the river;
that there is no such thing as time?
That the river is everywhere at the same time,
at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the current,
in the ocean and in the mountains,
everywhere and that the present only exists for it,
not the shadow of the past nor the shadow of the future.
–Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha

Some think of life and ignore death.
Some think of death and ignore life.
The follower of the Tao knows death will come,
therefore knows how to live:
without illusions, without fear, without resistance,
and without suffering.
Neither life nor death can disturb this one.

Saturday, 27 May, 2017 :: 78Nothing in the world
is as soft and yielding as water.
Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible,
nothing can surpass it.

The soft overcomes the hard;
the gentle overcomes the rigid.
Everyone knows this is true,
but few can put it into practice.

Therefore the Master remains
serene in the midst of sorrow.
Evil cannot enter his heart.
Because he has given up helping,
he is people's greatest help.

True words seem paradoxical.

"....WILD AND WISE WAYS...." UNCEASING JOY Sunrise/Afternoon May 26, 2017

Please continue to make requests of your lovers and friends,
in all of their forms,
while simultaneously remaining committed to the empowered,
alive realm of self-care,
no longer willing to abandon yourself,
even if you are abandoned by another.
To dare to be your own best friend,
to attend to your body and your heart and your soul in wild and wise ways,
even when the other is nowhere to be found.

And when some of your needs do go unmet, as they inevitably will,
to no longer be seduced by the ancient conclusion
of the little one who deemed herself unworthy as she longed to make sense of an environment that could not hold her as the mystery that she was.
Instead, to slow down, breathe into your lower belly,
open your senses,
and step into the sacred world
which is here now.
To honor the power and holiness of the relational field,
which is not oriented around meeting all your needs,
but revealing how whole you already are.

AFTERNOON...............

“Be wild; that is how to clear the river.
The river does not flow in polluted, we manage that.
The river does not dry up, we block it.
If we want to allow it its freedom, we have to allow our ideational lives to be let loose, to stream, letting anything come, initially censoring nothing.
That is creative life. It is made up of divine paradox.
To create one must be willing to be stone stupid,
to sit upon a throne on top of a jackass and spill rubies from one’s mouth.
Then the river will flow, then we can stand in the stream of it raining down.”
― Clarissa Pinkola Estés,
Women Who Run With The Wolves:
Contacting the Power of the Wild Woman

“The doors to the world of the wild Self are few but precious.
If you have a deep scar, that is a door,
if you have an old, old story, that is a door.
If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it,
that is a door.
If you yearn for a deeper life,
a full life,
a sane life,
that is a door.”

Holding on to anything is like holding on to your breath.
You will suffocate.
The only way to get anything in the physical universe
is by letting go of it.
Let go & it will be yours forever.
~ Deepak Chopra
https://www.stillnessspeaks.com/teacher/deepak-chopra/?utm_source=Stillness+Speaks+Newsletter&utm_campaign=2d7bc3dee2-Newsletter_May_24th5_24_2017&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f5958d3327-2d7bc3dee2-19977997

We come spinning out of nothingness,
scattering stars like dust.
Rumi
Quoted by Deepak Chopra here:

Such is the way of every seeker
who comes to complain
at the High Court.
When the presence of God arrives,
where are the seekers?
First there’s dying,
then union,
like gnats inside the wind.
~ Rumi

DARK OF THE MOON
The Dark of the Moon phase occurs when the Moon disappears into Sun’s golden orb
as her orbit takes her between Earth and the Sun.
No Moon will illuminate the night. We will be in darkness.
This is the ideal time to look inward and find inspiration
for the coming weeks of the next lunar month.
When the New Moon in Gemini kicks in on Thursday,
there will be a surge of proactive energy.
Your heart will feel a burst of enthusiasm.
The energy of life will spring forth with renewed vigour.
Catch it.
Breathe it in.
The waxing Moon or breathing-in phase begins at with the New Moon.
The intake of oxygen will revitalize your soul.

In the practice of Tao
we rely less and less
on what is called "information"
until our actions arise from emptiness,
and everything is done naturally.
From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 48

Keep silence, be mute;
if you have not yet become
the tongue of God,
be an ear.
Rumi

Embryonic Respiration:
Now the breath seems to neither rise nor fall, neither open nor close. It is so ultra-slow and soft that if a down feather were held in front of the nostrils, it wouldn't move. Your mind merges with the breath, as though the breath is your entire world. The belly is pleasantly warm.
You are like a mother nurturing her womb with caring, compassionate awareness.
You are breathing like a baby in the womb of creation.
Enjoy as long as you wish
(or if you must look at a clock,
I suggest twenty to thirty minutes).

TOTALLY POSITIVE & AMAZING DAY DUE TO THE PHRASE IN MY SOUL BELOW IN RED FONT

Conclusion of Sadhguru excellent Reminder (at least for me!) below!!

On a certain day, a man fell into a septic tank, right up to the neck in filth. He desperately tried to come out, but he could not. After some time, he started screaming, “Fire, fire!” Neighbors heard this fire call and called the fire brigade who then came rushing. They looked all over the place – no fire. Then they found this man in the septic tank, pulled him out and asked him, “Why were you screaming ‘fire?’ Where is the fire?” Then the man retorted, “If I had said, ‘shit, shit’ would you come?” You have to do the right things, otherwise right things will not happen to you.

i also just Saturated with that link in blue above
