Living The Wisdom of the Tao.
Verse Five.


Through the inspirations of my spiritual mentor Dr. Wayne Dyer, 
I have undertaken this year, (as he did in  2006), the teachings of 
the eighty-one verses of the "Tao Te Ching." Legend says that 
the "Tao," (pronounced "Dao") was written by the prophet "Lao-tzu"
some five hundred years before the birth of Christ. The interpretation
of the words Tao is "The Way" Te is "The Shape and Power" and 
Ching is "The Book." It has been called "one of the profoundest books
in world philosophy." For my references I have been studying the
interpretations and teachings of Dr. Dyer from his book "Change Your 
Thoughts - Change Your Life." In the spirit of Eagle Eye, here is my
inspired (poetic) interpretation of Verse Five.

                                     Impartial.

One of the many mysteries,
that is the Tao, is Impartiality,
without discrimination, preference, or judgement;
"The Way" of the Great Provider.
Giving... and giving;
Simply, and living... Centred,
it is a "Truth," held silently, and invisibly within; 
Yet Seen, by all... Who can See.
Harmoniously aware, conscious.... Unbiased;
Genuine and respectful, for all it gives, reveres;
Simultaneously releasing, it's gentle, "Paradox." 
Feel it's limitlessness, and all-creating,
"Source" ...of power...and energy.
Offering, unconditionally, all it's gifts, to everyone, and everything; 
In spirit, and with love. 
For it is respectful, and ever-giving, and simply,
what the "Tao" does;
In this moment, the next, and every;
Moment. 
Like the gentle breezes, flowing, 
constantly, through a dancing Palm;
Impartial, to the calm; 
while sharing, without judging, 
the gifts of giving, to that of all of Nature's wonders, 
And Creation.
Allowing, the fulfillment of this beautiful light.
The brilliance of consciousness, and understanding;
Shared, and connected, to the deafening silence that is; 
Impartiality... Peace, and Joy!

Live. Inspired.
