Hi Bob - Yes, it is lovely to live this one as surrender.
Nothing special. No special surrender, just being. Which could also be called "Tao being Tao." Just however it is. Thirsty, drink water. Open eyes, light is. Close eyes, darkness. The light/dark one is. Nothing to grasp - as this is clear, grasping dissolves as a natural death. - Dan - On Nov 5, 4:26 pm, Bob1357 <[email protected]> wrote: > <Love the symbol of Tao,> > <That ancient symbol of divine unity and append mental division ……… > it’s all been know before. > > > Another example of co - indecent. > I just ordered a license plate and key ring with the Tao symbol. > > My point being, your comment on the Tao symbol solidifies even more > that we are all one. > > On Nov 5, 6:35 pm, Mark Ty-Wharton <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Kippers > > > On 5 November 2010 16:55, Dan <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Hi Marcus - > > > > Yes - quite so. > > > > Mental divisions "emanate" from this undivided energy. > > > > However, the content of mentation contradicts the actuality of the > > > energy. > > > > A key contradiction is the static nature of mental imagery, including > > > memory content - whereas the actuality of energy is constant movement, > > > never being in the same place even once.
