Today I had the pleasure of speaking with my buddies Julie and Loyce who chose #48 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.
#48 "The More you Know"
Pursuing knowledge, you accumulate daily,
Turning your true nature into a commodity.
Pursuing Tao, you unburden daily,
Allowing your true nature to guide you.
The Master unburdens herself again and again
Diminishing, releasing, and deprogramming,
Until finally there is nothing left to be.
When there is nothing to be, there is nothing to do
And everything gets accomplished regardless.
