The 10,000 things

The Tao Te Ching tells us the world of the 10,000 things (or the world of physical matter) is an expression of the nameless and formless Tao. And that everything that exists comes from and has at it's heart 'Tao'.
From a metaphysical and quantum reality standpoint we could interpret the Tao as the pure energy of creation which is all present from beginningless beginning to endless end.

The Tao is both the creator and the created.

As we stop grasping in the world of the 10,000 things and consciously place our attention on the Tao, it is quite remarkable what new insights we glimpse. To become one with the formless and to step aside and trust that we do not have to keep the world spinning or our hearts beating, then we open to the inspired wisdom of the formless world or of our inspiration.

You don't have to 'make' things happen, and often the more you push the less you achieve. So today I invite you to rest, act as if all your dreams are already arrived in form, and spend your time in Tao, with Tao, as Tao. You may be surprised at what you discover.

In Love
