“Find a safe place in which life can go on, even though danger is all around.  Allow this experience to help you become more understanding and compassionate” – Today’s Reading

Find a safe place in which life can go on, even though danger is all around.  Allow this experience to help you become more understanding and compassionate.

A tree is not a suitable place for a wild goose. But if it is clever, it will find a flat branch on which it can get a footing. A man’s life too, in the course of its development, often brings him into inappropriate situations, in which he finds it difficult to hold his own without danger. Then it is important to be sensible and yielding. This enables him to discover a safe place in which life can go on, although he may be surrounded by danger.

Tao Te Ching – Verse 5 – The Tao doesn’t take sides; it gives birth to both good and evil.

53 – Fifty-Three.  Chien / Gradual Progress

The gnarled Pine grows tenaciously off the Cliff face:
The Superior Person clings faithfully to dignity and integrity, thus elevating the Collective Spirit of Man in his own small way.
Development.
The maiden is given in marriage.
Good fortune if you stay on course.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

Adaptability mixed with integrity will bring a calm, steady progress.
Move from your center, always faithful to your principles, yet with the flexibility to weather any tempest.
Yours is not a meteoric rise to the top, but the solid, confident footing of one who has a clear vision of what can be, and who is willing to climb the distance to reach it.
The oracle foresees companionship along the way — a Divine comfort on any journey.

Six in the fourth place means:

The wild geese must find shelter in the trees.
Only the broadest, flattest branches will harbor them.
No mishaps.

The wild goose gradually draws near the tree.
Perhaps it will find a flat branch. No blame.

Wild goose

35 – Thirty-Five.  Chin / Aspiration

The Sun shines down upon the Earth:
Constantly honing and refining his brilliance, the Superior Person is a Godsend to his people.
They repay his benevolence with a herd of horses, and he is granted audience three times in a single day.

Promotion.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

This is a time of reward for good works.
Those you have helped want to show their gratitude.
Benefits come both from on high and from the humble you uplifted.
Accept all gifts graciously, though the reward may not be what you truly need or hoped for.
Some may bestow more than they can afford to give, but you must realize that they need to feel that they have repaid you.

“The body has been given to me to realize and I must realize while I am in the body. I am not talking in mystical terms. When the vibratory nucleus realizes that the magnetic field of its own psyche is in relationship to the magnetic field of the universal psyche, this creates a harmony, and then the merger is with Infinity.” Yogi Bhajan

Tao Te Ching – Verse 5

The Tao doesn’t take sides;
it gives birth to both good and evil.
The Master doesn’t take sides;
she welcomes both saints and sinners.

The Tao is like a bellows:
it is empty yet infinitely capable.
The more you use it, the more it produces;
the more you talk of it, the less you understand.
