Flow, Free Your Mind, and Center

 

Flow with whatever may happen and let your mind be free;
Stay centered by accepting whatever you are doing. This is the ultimate. — Chuang Tsu

 
Chuang Tsu offers a wonderful thought, and it is not as difficult to put into action as one might think.
Madison Avenue would probably suggest his thought be shortened to “Go With The Flow.” Then again Madison Avenue doesn’t really want people to flow, let their minds be free, or be centered.
Madison Avenue want you to follow their lead straight to the material, not the spiritual, that is unless they are selling the spiritual.
I suggest that you read Chung Tsu again, and then close one’s eyes and thinking about flowing, letting your mind go free, and yet staying centered.
When you are that point and believe me it will come, you’re at the heart of meditation, at the heart of prayer, and at the heart of the ultimate.
It is only a matter of practice.
