Silence: Creativity’s Birthplace

| The Tao Chapter 42 – My Second Interpretation |

Time has given us a beginning. At the beginning of life is Source, God, The Ultimate. By Source, you came with the harmonious potential to create, both with your mind and your hands. Through man all physical form is realized with the dual potential of creative energy.

Silence makes room for creative energy.

The common person abhors it because she believes she is alone. The wise person welcomes it because she knows that potential is born into the physical by it. In the silence is Source.

As you flow with life, harmoniously realizing the dual potential of your creative power, you create as one with your Source.

LIVING THE TAO: Today, consider an opportunity that life has put before you. Before jumping in, use your quieted mind to see the best creation of it, then use your hands to do the work. You will see some of your best work come forth.

My 2018 focus is to intentionally live the Tao Te Ching. This is my second reading of Stephen Mitchell’s translation. I share my daily interpretations hoping to inspire you to do the same.

Embrace your journey. Experience bliss. Live the Tao.
