TAO for me

 Being:

  • Free from desire, you realize the mystery. Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations.
  • Master doesn’t seek fulfillment, not seeking, not  expecting, she is present , welcoming all things.
  • Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.

Acceptance and Action:

  • Master acts without doing anything and teaches without saying anything. When things arise, he lets them come; When things disappear, he lets them go.
  • He does not try to control things and do not worry for things which are not under control. Knowing how to yield is strength. Practice not-doing, and everything will fall into place.
  • Master takes action by letting things take their course. Remain unmoved till the right action happens. He remains as calm at the end as at the beginning.
  • When the work is done, he forgets it. When job is done,  he move on to the next job. Because he does not claim for the credit,  hence shall not lose it. That is why it lasts forever.
  • Be the Master.

Response

  • When things around him fall apart, Master stays cool. Just being aware when things are out of balance, He stays centered in Tao.
  • Master does not try to control things and do not worry for things which are not under control. That's why he is always satisfied. 
  • He puts his self away, yet he remains. It is not because he is selfless  but, self-realized. He puts his mind away, He works with others mind.
  • Be the Master.
  • There is no greater illusion than fear. Whoever can see through all fear will always be safe. Give evil nothing to oppose and it will disappear by itself
  • Knowing how to yield is strength. Use your own light and return to the source of light. This is called practicing eternity.

 

Greatest treasures

  • Master has just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures.
  • Simplicity - Simple in actions and in thoughts, you return to the source of being.
  • Patient with both friends and enemies, you accord with the way things are.
  • Compassionate toward yourself, you reconcile all beings in the world.

No Self – No problem: Why we create our own realities?

You are nothing, but bundle of memories. Without memory, your sense of self dissolves. The connection between conscious experiences disappears. All ego-driven thoughts—such as 'I am this' or 'I am that'—and any attachment to objects of awareness fade away. You begin to perceive the world with the innocence of a child or the vacant gaze of one lost in madness. Human brain is a highly sophisticated intelligence system, and modern AI machines are modeled after its functioning. Based on stored data and logic, it builds a narrative, reaches a conclusion, and convinces you it's the truth. However, these conclusions represent only a small fragment of the broader field of consciousness—just one among thousands of possible interpretations. Scientific studies on the human brain have confirmed this. Brain is a magic machine designed to fool you. Each of our brain creates its own unique story, like different AI machines producing different results. But each story is just on...

Silence is the natural state of mind

Silence is the natural state of mind. Mind returns spontaneously to silence after every experience as experiences happen in the background of Silence. What stops the mind from returning back to silence is the attachment to the result of the experience - Judging, comparing, contradicting, seeking -wanting more or less, not accepting as-is. An unconditional love, selfless work and indifference to results (complete acceptance and no seeking) leads to silence. Silence can only lead the movement of silence and not mere talking about silence. Begin by letting thoughts flow and watch them. The very observation will slow down the mind and stop all together. Be choiceless-ly aware. Once mind is quiet. Keep it.  This might help you too -  No self No problem

Freedom and Peace – A framework of ideas

All problems happened because we have set boundary and limited ourself into a framework of Ideas.   Culture and knowledge shape the ideas, frameworks, and boundaries that define our reality. At birth, we exist in a state of pure being—without a sense of self, without limits, and naturally joyful. But as we grow, layers of imposed knowledge and societal structures take hold. Bit by bit, we adopt beliefs and boundaries not our own, and before we know it, we find ourselves confined within the invisible walls of these mental frameworks. Creation of an ideal person or a thing (an idea) by culture is the problem. We contradict with this ideal all the time. This has resulted in war within. True freedom doesn't come from perfecting the self, but from seeing through the illusion of self, shaped by inherited knowledge and ideas. Only when our beliefs and ideas fall away—when the conditioned self dissolves, we can encounter the stillness that lies beyond becoming. The knowledge abo...
