I still haven't found the answer to -what I believe to be thus far- the greatest question of my life, despite my religious study of the Tao. Which admittedly, I keep neglecting because I can't find my answer.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 43987400 That's what we call chasing our own tail.
How do I find my answer? It's maddening at times.
I can't simply just pick one path and stick with it. I need to be spiritually and emotionally invested in my choice, or I will fail the objective.
there are 2 aspects of will
the yang aspect - the outward searching , directed , focused
and the yin aspect - the 'letting go ' and going with the flow '
in martial arts the yin powers the yang
you need to let go of searching and see where just living , following your heart ( not your head ) leads you
when it inspires you , follow it , explore , and apply your yang will to the task
when it has given you all you need for now , recognise that and move along , taking life in -allow yourself to be directionless and just experiencing ( yin will)
and another thing will pop up to inspire you -and that inspiration is your guide
it's your journey - both aspects of your will are of use and serve your best interest ( but yin powers yang -not the other way around )
jut mo - hope it helps
