Ta-Wan

Attempting perfection, you show all your faults.

Accepting your faults, is perfection.

Aiming to please, failure.

Being, easy.

Ta-Wan

Why seek happiness?

When the quest only defines sadness!

Breathe deep and sit,

For this is it!

Ta-Wan

A light reflects, refracts, rebounds.

The resulting refracted light,

reflections and so on each too do the same.

The self is similar in the way she refracts

to form the appearance of many.

To a point even where separation from source can feel concrete.

Looking back on other reflections

this one can feel them wrong,

can see in another the enemy.

Draw back to the source,

this problem is not there.

It is not possible to die,

only suffer.

It is not possible to die (as you are infinite),

only suffer (not knowing this).

Ta-Wan

When you meet normal people

they tell you all about themselves.

When you meet the wise

they teach you about your self.

For the master,

there is nothing but the self.

Ta-Wan

In just the same way as a lake acts in settling dirt,

nourishing life and floating logs -

Without doing a thing;

always in balance and remaining calm – manage your life.

Ta-Wan

Guided by the groin they live in endless lustful seeking.

Those guided by the belly suffer unhealthy short days.

Those who take the heart for guide are some of the best people we know, 

but may often follow false whims and suffer these.

Guided by the mind are the most dangerous; 

thinking they are right, letting ego dictate ideas, wants and needs. 

Our common man.

Only they who have the empty cap, the guide in the crown of the head, 

can truly be seen as balanced. 

This spiritual perspective is the one who rules them all. 

No other guide can lead astray when this master has the helm.

Seeking truth is like stepping forward to achieve standing still.

An impossible method.

It is enough to accept that all is bliss

and that anything else is a misinterpretation.

Ta-Wan

There has been a stream of wisdom passing down the ages

and at every turn man has attempted to collect the water into a container

so that he can wrap his mind around it.

Those containers don't flow, they stagnate, the flow continues in the stream.

Let go of your stagnation and let it back into the stream to flow.

Don't hold onto bad memories, don't hold on to ideas.

The more you learn that then the less you need.
