"The nature of the mind is that things constantly rise, come up, persist, end, and then return. Buddhism discusses the same thing where they say thoughts rise, continue, and end, falling into Emptiness. During the beginning of Daoist meditation, you at least need to be conscious of the fact that any thoughts, feelings, perceptions, desires, events, ideas, or anything else you can perceive are constantly changing. This means that they rise and, sooner or later, at the end, they always return to your mind in whatever ways you experience being on Earth. This circle of thoughts never ends. All meditation practices, whether Buddhist or Daoist, show different ways to become sensitive enough to recognize and make connections between the circles inside and outside of yourself." - excerpt from the Dao de Jing, Chapter 16, written by Bruce Frantzis Visit the link in comments to purchase your copy today! ☯️ . . . #daoism #taoism #daodejing #brucefrantzis #energyarts #spirituality #qigong #buddhism #meditation #taoteaching #yinyang
