The Graceful Sage

🙏

For any of you who've been bewildered by the world, your own life, what's going on in your life, or for any of you who've been grieving those areas, now it's going to start to turn towards transformation. A huge wave of grief happened for a lot of people from November through December. Now, we're coming into the period where you get to see things differently.

Many years ago, my guides said that grief is the great transformer. Whenever we are going through a grief period, as brutal as it can feel when it's got hold of you—because grief is like taking deep dives in the waves, and when grief comes and it takes you, it takes you, and until it's done with you, it doesn't let you surface and come up for air again—it is this incredibly transformational process, and what we have to do is be able to allow grief to do its work through us. At the other end of grief, it doesn't necessarily mean we come out of it and don't still miss the person that (perhaps) we just lost. We'll always miss them on some level, but we are different because of what we've just lost, who we've just lost, or parts of ourselves that we feel we've just lost. We come out on the other side different and transformed.

The steepest path is the way to the deepest parts of your self."

~ Tao (道) - The Way of Nature ~

"Yield and overcome. Empty and be full. Have little and gain. Have much and be confused." ~Lao Tsu, Tao Te Ching

The Tao (道) is the eternal WAY of nature, the cosmic cycles of creation, regeneration and degeneration that keep the universe in balance, connecting all things together as a unified whole.

"Returning is the motion of the Tao. Each separate being returns to the common Source. Returning to the Source is serenity." ~Lao Tsu

By emptying our minds and aligning with Nature's Way, egoic thoughts naturally dissolve and melt away, and we move once again in synch with the Cosmos, All That Is.

Nothing is to be attained with the Tao. Rather, we flow in tune with the Cyclic Laws of Life and connect with our true spiritual nature by cultivating inner serenity, opening our hearts, releasing ideas (and expectations) and letting go.

“Simplicity, patience, compassion.
These three are your greatest treasures.
Simple in actions and thoughts,
you return to the Source of Being.
Patient with both friends and enemies,
you accord with the way things are.
Compassionate toward yourself,
you reconcile all beings in the world.”
― Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching

“We need the tonic of wildness...
At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.”

- Henry David Thoreau,
Walden: Or, Life in the Woods

"'Slow' and 'down' are modes of the soul; they are connective modes, ways of keeping connected to oneself and to one’s environment. 'Slowing downwards' refers to more than simply moving slowly, it means growing down towards the roots of one’s being. Instead of outward growth and upward climb, life at times must turn inward and downward in order to grow in other ways. There is a shift to the vertical down that re-turns us to root memories, root metaphors, and timeless things that shape our lives from within. Slowing downwards creates opportunities to dwell more deeply in one’s life, for the home we are looking for in this world is within us all along. The lost home that we are seeking is ourselves; it is the story we carry within our soul."

"Authority is a big word that troubles most people, especially in the form of the authorities. Yet the roots of authority go back to words like author, and augment and authentic. There can be forms of genuine authority that develop from authoring things and from being truly creative. When faced with the inevitable inequities of life, there is such a thing as authentic authority that is rooted not in the common, often confused world, but in something deeper, that is both more creative and more genuine. When people draw from the root of their deeper self, they become authentic and able to act with true originality, for the deep self is secretly connected to the origins of life."
