Living The Wisdom of The Tao.
Verse 45.

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 45.


                       Look Beyond


                        Look beyond
               and view the world with new eyes.
                   See through the superficial
  to a place of stillness, tranquility...the home of the wise.


                               Look beyond
                at what exists only on the surface.
                 Beyond judgement and appearance
     to invisibleness, perfection... the true sense of purpose.


                                Look beyond
                   the perceptions of imperfection.
                      and truly feel deep within
           the beauty that is in every flawless reflection.
                     In all people, places and things
                                   and trust
                                 the paradox
                         that is non-judgemental
                                and that always...
                                 Looks Beyond.


Live. Inspired.
