When the world yields to the Tao, racehorses will be used to transport manure. When the world ignores the Tao, war horses graze in public areas.
There is no greater sin than desire. There is no greater misfortune than discontent. There is no greater calamity than greed.
Limitation of Desire – Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu
Not going out the door, I have knowledge of the world. Not looking through the window I perceive the Tao of the sky. The more you wander into the distance, the less you know.
Therefore, the sage does not wander but understands, does not see things but defines them, does not work but completes.
SEEING THE DISTANT – Book of the Tao
Thousands of a thousand gods heal you.
Thousands of a thousand gods restore your breath of life.
Thousands of a thousand gods protect you forever.
Every day in eternity,
May Love flow in you and for you.
May the vital energy that moves the worlds,
Stand over your head.
Every day that Love reaches you!
