My Wu-Wei




Ahhhhhh......peace and tranquility......

Close your eyes like this guy (top picture)


Now as you read this with your eyes closed,imagine yourself sitting lethargically on soft grass warmed by the sun. You're getting very sleepy in this relaxed state, letting your mind wander aimlessly. Take a deep breath and feel the air fill your lungs and leave, now do it again, and again. Ok. Your arms start to feel like they're missing after staying in the same position for so long. Now it's your legs too, then your feet and your head disappears along with everything else.Almost as if you don't physically exist at all.... deep breath, ooooooooohhhhh huuuuuhhhhhh uhhhhhhh huuuuuhhh Ok I'm bored now. How about you? Wu-Wei is definitely a joy of joys fun thing to do. I hope you enjoyed it as much as the old guy did

Thanks for posting on wu wei. By the way, I like the picture you included.

I want to make sure it is clear that wu wei is not the same thing as meditation. Rather it is "non-action", going with the flow rather than fighting against your dao. Meditation is simply one way a person might get in touch with their dao.
