Living The Wisdom of The Tao.
Verse 58.


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 58.  


                          Untroubled

                      Untroubled,
                                the heart
                           that simply knows;
                                content,
                              and stable
                                it  purely
                                 flows.

                               Untroubled,
                                 the world
                          becomes totally clear;
                                 wholeness
                                   replaces
                               all doubt and
                                      fear.

                                Untroubled,
                                  the fortunes
                             both bad and good;
                                    reveals
                                the paradox
                                  of life as it
                                    should.

                                  Untroubled,
                                   the master
                            lives honest and true;
                                     leans in
                                      on life
                             as the right thing to
                                          do.
                                 "Untroubled."

Live. Inspired.
