The Power of Stillness

| The Tao Chapter 37 – My Fifth Interpretation|

If you could only learn to be still on the inside, you would also learn that on the outside you don’t have to makeanything happen. Your presence within Life’s flow takes care of makingthings happen for you.

If the influential could flow in this power—their true power—then they would truly change the world.

The strength to be still and allow Life’s natural rhythms to flow has the power to transform hearts.

In stillness there is bravery. From stillness comes peace. With stillness there is love.

These in abundance change the world.

LIVING THE TAO: How much fuss is being stirred up by trying to control outcomes by your might? It would be easier and less stressful for all involved if you became still and sought the direction of your inner guidance system. So, do that instead.

My 2018 focus is to intentionally live the Tao Te Ching. This is my fifth 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.
