Verse 76
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 76.
Flexible
Be
Flexible
and see how
strength
actually comes
from bending,
suppleness,
and
being
Flexible.
Witness
Flexible
in nature
and
softly observe
how remaining pliable
allows
the strength
to weather any
storm.
Like
the Flexibility
of a towering palm
that sways
majestically
in the force of a
powerful wind...
Her weakness
ultimately
her
incredible strength.
Learn
to bend
(instead)
of choosing stiff
and rigid,
and
know
how much more
comes
from simply
remaining
Flexible.
Live. Inspired.
Raymond Paul
