It is true that in the history of human thinking the most fruitful developments take place at those points where two different lines of thought meet. These lines may have their roots in different human cultures, different times, different cultural environments, or different religious traditions.

If they meet; if they are at least so much related to each other that a real interaction can take place, then one may hope that new and interesting developments may follow.

TAO 77- GAIA Gives

The Tao of Heaven works in the world
like the drawing of a bow.
The top is bent downward;
the bottom is bent up.
The excess is taken from,
and the deficient is given to.

The Tao works to use the excess,

and gives to that which is depleted.
The way of people is to take from the depleted,
and give to those who already have an excess.

Who is able to give to the needy from their excess?

Only someone who is following the way of the Tao.

This is why the Master gives

expecting nothing in return.
She does not dwell on her past accomplishments,
and does not glory in any praise.

Balance is the name of the Game.
Energy is neither created nor destroyed
Energy and Matter interchange freely
Enthalpy and Entropy give direction

On Gaia, there exists excess energy from our sun
It warms the soil, feeds photosynthesis
Energizes physiology at all levels
Provides everything necessary.

How do we take advantage?
We don’t.
There is no advantage

Gaia gives without concern
Without caring
Without agenda

We can’t take
We receive
