Living The Wisdom of The Tao.
Verse 63. 

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 Shape and Power" Te is "The Way" 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 63.


Less is More.

Less is more,
when dealing with the difficulties in,
"Your Life."

See the value,
in the little things, 
and accomplish more, by doing less.

Keep things simple,
by taking on "Your Challenges,"
while they are still small.

Do not try so hard,
and see the difference, 
as you realize moreby doing less.

Stay in the present,
reduce "Your stress and worry," 
for in this moment...less is more.

Keep things close, and small,
and know that all is manageable,
by shifting to less, and experiencing more.

Change "Your view" of the bigger picture,
and see only what is in front of you today.
Less in this moment... means more in the future.

By staying in the now, and keeping it simple,
comes the biggest rewards.....
Your own belief, and understanding,
that Less,
is "always"...
More.

Live. Inspired.

Living the Wisdom of The Tao
Verse 62.

Through the inspirations of my spiritual mentor Dr. Wayne Dyer,

Verse 62.  


"The Treasure House"

Open the doors,
to that special place...
Your very own,
"Treasure House."
And see all,
that is right,
and good;
in Yourself,
and in others.

A quiet place,
accessed only in the depths of
Your quiet mind.
Here;
housed beautifully in
"Your imagination,"
lies the secret to peace,
and contentment in
"Your World."

Go there regularly,
whenever you need to,
and take refuge,
in times of hurt, disappointment,
and sadness;
and know,
"Your beautiful self,"
in forgiveness, kindness, and only...
Love.

Reconnect, and allow
Yourself in,
to that place of light,
trust, and belief...
and see it's doors opening,
to a most beautiful,
and sacred space,
where there is no place,
for judgement, fear, anxiety, or angst.

Elevate, Your spirit in,
"Your Treasure House,"
and take comfort in,
Your knowing,
that it is always available,
in that perfect space,
within the quiet and meditative mind:
of Your very own...
"Treasure House.

Live. Inspired.
