Living The Wisdom of The Tao.
Verse 14.




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 interpretations 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 14.

                         Beyond


                            Beyond...
             the space that cannot be seen,
                        felt, or heard.
                            Invisible...
                      it is always there;
                     A one... untouched.
                      From now here..
                             It returns,
                  to it's pure and graceful;
                          Nothingness.
        
        Beyond knowing...and not knowing,
                    all in harmony with
                          "the Way."

              Beyond has no beginning,
                     and sees no end.
     Immeasurable, shapeless and bottomless.
            Yet perfectly connected to it's
                                 One.
                              
                     Like an endless sea,
               Beyond the distant horizon;
             It's mystical - magical - powers
                               Eternal
                          in it's "being."

          Embrace the infinite nature of it's
                            Foreverness.
                            See Beyond,
           that which the "eyes" cannot see.
                             And Bask
              in the Divine magnificence,
                      of ALL that truly is;
                              Beyond.

Live. Inspired.
