Reflection

It's time to reflect. No, that's not the word. That implies looking. That's what each post might be. This recent time has... has felt inwardly turbulent. Reflective but inwardly active. So, relax, reflect but not review? Time to be patient. Breathe....

  1. A parallel observation from 'Liberation from Making Sense' by Barefoot Doctor:

    "Of course, there is sense. There is an innate sense in the way the Tao manifests reality for you, if you're only willing to stop trying to make sense of it all, relax, trust, observe, discern, but not seek to draw conclusions... What's the point of trying to label it all and stick it in neat little boxes? It (the Tao) just won't fit."

    Err, apparently the intellect going into overdrive happens when your spleen chi is overheated, and you can help dissipate this by sticking your fingers under your left ribs for about 80 secs and gradually withdrawing them, thus enabling your excess cognitative energy to drop down into the gap.

    And you can say to yourself:
    "The less sense I try to make of life,
    the more sense it will make."

    Hope you like this - I'm trying to practise it too! X
