“If The Way
were about being
a student of something,
it wouldn’t be alive in the world.
It lives because certain people
say to themselves, “All this
teaching is just for me.
I am the living
expression
of this.”
This isn’t arrogant.
This is humbly keeping the buddhas,
Lao Tzu, Lalla, Rumi, Suzuki, Bahauddin,
Yuanwu, all of them, alive in the world.
Only you can accomplish this.
You are the only one.”
– Wei Wu Wei
“Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking less about yourself.“

The gif is a simple but powerful illustration of yin and yang and illustrates the need to go with the flow and when in the flow, observe the cycles and adapt accordingly. Move without thinking, be intuitive action in the moment. Not my wisdom for I am a dancing fool.
