Verse 30.
I have undertaken this year, (as he did in 2006), the teachings of the
eighty-one verses of the 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 30.
Life Without Force
Wise the leader who lives Life Without Force.
Understanding the paradox of weapons that can turn against.
For to attain, accomplish, and realize the purpose,
is to be truly free of boast, ego, and the sense of selfish attainment.
Like the warrior who knows to lay the weapon down....
and Live.... Without Force.
For true success is free of conflict, stress and undo harm.
Force creates counterforce, disappointment, hurt and needless strife.
Abandon the desire to win or conquer;
And choose the heartful path of love, respect, and honour.
Like the army that learns to cease the fight...and do what's right;
by Living.... Without Force.
See the Source that does not take... but only provides.
Eliminating all means of negative thoughts, actions, and beliefs.
Living.. with only love, and purpose from the heart.
In balance and in tune with ALL that is true... and good.
Like the spirit of the Divine who only sees;
A beautiful Life...Lived... Without Force.
Live. Inspired.
