Motivational Monday-Proverb from the Tao

Motivational Monday-

This is a proverb from Lao Tsu who was an older contemporary of Confucius. Lao Tsu practiced Taoism which is concerned with the more spiritual level of being.

Much of what is shared falls along the lines of Feng Shui and really in general all teachings Alchemy teachings of energy and connection to self and source (how ever you wish to define that).

 

Carrying body and soul and embracing the one,

Can you avoid separation?

 

Attending fully and becoming supple,

Can you be as a newborn baby?

 

Washing and cleansing the primal vision,

Can you be without stain?

 

Loving all men and ruling the county,

Can you be without cleverness?

 

Opening and closing the gates of heaven,

Can you play the role of woman?

 

Understanding and being open to all things,

Are you able to do nothing?

Giving birth and nourishing,

Bearing yet not possessing,

Working yet not taking credit,

Leading yet not domination,

 

This is the Primal Virtue.
