He does not seek power - yet people follow him.

Going forward seems like retreat.

There is a time to go ahead and a time to stay behind. There is a time to breathe easy and time to breathe hard. There is a time to be vigorous and a time to be gentle. There is a time to gather and a time to release. Can you see things as they are And let them be all on their own?

Does one scent appeal more than another? Do you prefer this flavor, or that feeling? Is your practice sacred and your work profane? Then your mind is separated: from itself, from oneness, from the Tao.

Your name or your body, what is dearer? Your body or your wealth, what is worthier?

See others as yourself. See families as your family. See towns as your town. See countries as your country. See worlds as your world.
