We will suddenly realize that God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves.”

« 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.
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.
From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 51

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.

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.
From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 51
__
I am so grateful not to spend a moment
trying to discern what the Tao expects.
It expects nothing, wants nothing,
needs nothing from me.
I can succeed or fail
with no fear of eternal blame.
My whole life is accepted
and all the light and dark threads
are woven into the tapestry of Tao.
And if a life is spent without a thought
of being part of Tao;
that life is accepted just as well
for being what it was.
__
The Dali Lama is a brilliant and compassionate man, but his being is no more nor less a part of Tao than Donald Trump’s. I value one expression over the other, but the Tao does not. Each is being who and what they are. In my misanthropic moods, when it seems as if humanity is going to the well known hand-basket destination, it helps me to remember that we are all simply living in the illusion that we are separate from one another. Some of us believe the illusion so deeply that we cause great harm, but the Tao will always find ways of bringing balance without ever resorting to punishment or retribution.

If a child were to appear at your door
If a child were to appear at your door: cold, scared, and tired from a long journey…
If he or she were anxious, in despair, full of rage, or confused…
Would you refuse entry to the little one? Would you tell him to come back once he dissolved his fear, replaced his anger with gratitude, and clarified his confusion? When she healed her anxiety, mended her broken heart, and transformed her deep feeling of unworthiness?
Would you require these things before you allowed the little one in, held him, and provided shelter for her raw vulnerability to rest from an ancient voyage of becoming?
In your most authoritative spiritual voice, would you urge the little one to "get over it,” scramble to accept everything the way it is, return immediately to the present moment, urgently forgive those who have harmed him, quickly rid herself of her “ego,” or manifest a “higher vibration?”
Or would you offer sanctuary and safe passage from a long passage? A warm home in which the stories, the emotions, and somatic trauma of the little one can be illuminated, contained, and held in a tender womb of care and loving kindness? A place of respite for the little one to find some new meaning in a world that has forgotten and let them down.
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.
