Under heaven all can see beauty as beauty
only because there is ugliness..
All can know good as good only because there is evil
Being and nonbeing produce each other
the difficult is born in the easy..
long is defined by shorth,the high by the low
before and after go along with each other
So the master lives openly with apparent duality
and paradoxical unity
the master can act without effort and teach without word
Nurturing things without possessing them
he works , but not for rewards
he competes , but not for results
when the work is done , it is forgotten...
that is why it last forever....
The second verse is all inspiring..
it teaches us how to accept things as they are.
Most of us desires happiness but we forgot that along with it is the reality that it has the innate polarity of sadness.
One way or the other what is on top will come down and vise versa....
In a way this gives me the insight that has created an inprint in my soul.
I believe that if we understand this powerfull words this will change our ways and perception about life...
A good example of this is letting go of the person you love
It may be because of distance, inreconsilable difference,that of permanent separation because of death......or for no reason at all
One should accept that possessing is not loving.....
letting go is in fact practicing the polarity of possesing thus loving...
It may sound paradoxiacal but that is the fact.
All of creation is created by this principle... Polarity principle
I am able to share my thoughts about this because one time in my life my thoughts were foolish... thus learn to seek wisdom...
Once there was no ronie.. there will never be, then out of nothingness came to be the material me.. as a human we are ought to be called and so THERE came Ronie....But actually even with or without name i existed.....I existed because once i didnt exist.....
What im trying to establish here is that we have to learn to flow with what life has to bring .... may it be good or bad... for life is not life without death....and death is not death if there is no life.... It is what it is or is not.....
If we learn to live by this principle we may be able to reflect our purpose of this never ending flow of paradoxical unity.....
