Today I was joined by Julie and then D-A-Y-R-L for #63 and #16 respectively.

#16 "Stillness and Integration"
Being empty of mind is of the utmost importance
And it is to be guarded with fervor.
We have all seen states of action arise,
And always beyond it returns stillness.

When any state of action is complete
It naturally returns to stillness.
This allows integration of what arose from action
Which is the natural cycle of maturation.

If stillness and integration cannot be achieved
Constant action will lead to anxiety and wild movements.
Yielding to stillness makes one impartial,
And all particular things fall away,
Then when it is time to die
One can be impartial to that as well.

#63 "Problems are no Problem"
Be still and you will act without doing,
Be still and your work will happen regularly.
Be still and your senses will engage the subtle.
Similarly engage a stranger as the multitude.
See the majesty of mountains in a grain of sand.

The Master knows greatness cannot be grasped.
Remaining still, she allows greatness to flow through her.

With no desire to achieve it, her stillness guides her,
Making subtle movements the difficult seems easy.

She knows that all of life is not without its problems
So problems turn out to be no problem at all.
