The number of his months is with you."
Job 14:5
Your Initiation Into the Tao
Your Knock On The Sacred Gate
Welcome!
As you are well into wellness, you will be welcomed to the gate -- your
initiation into the Tao, your way all the way into God's way. There
is a will that wheels the way. Your will takes you through your free will
into nature's wheel, where you are inside the wheels of the creative way,
your fortunate way.Before
this happens, the gate hosting you is no ordinary gateway -- easily accessible,
opening on personal demand, or closing on behalf of cultural commands.
Neither is it a tollgate allowing one to enter from one geographical location
to another nor an opportunity to promote gains or exalt positions. This
gate reflects the purified conscious state of your own health, affairs,
and aroused abilities. It represents your divine love upon your faithful
devotion, where your vulnerable position situated between yuor destiny
and free will should be freed. Your free will is your slave-wheel into
God's way.
A
grand cosmic eye, the gatekeeper, scans you as you stand before this gate,
thought after thought and cell by cell with its dual lenses -- the pure
light shining above and the harmonic heart singing within. With this light,
everything is seen as it is. Free of desire, the heart opens the gate
of love to receive pure light. Being a faithful seeker, you operate the
gate of life in proximity to the gate of birth and death. The diligent
lover rests beside the gate of wisdom and sleeps within the gate of illness.
The master of the will rises into the gate of light through the gate of
fear. The peacemaker rests beside the gate of silence by embracing the
gate of grace.
The
scanning eye becomes the inner light to command the gates of your spiritual
attitude and conscious intention. When you open the gates of the Tree
of Life locked with dark forces around the wheels, you will digest the
Tree of Knowledge with your lifeline and light time. Your conscious nature,
with no attachments to self or others, dances freely with the dual gates
of yin* and yang**, light and dark, good and evil, spirit
and love. The gate of the Tao initiates and arouses the son within
you, the primordial Yang Qi. This gate displays discipline, discloses
secrecy, professes quality, demonstrates character, and seals the heart
into the Tao. Once entering the opposite side, the gate of Te,
the gift of virtue, presents your authentic cells, explains your wordless
sell, displays your steadfast self, and retains your vulnerable trance.
The more closely you embrace the Tao of inner love at its origin, the
more virtuous and expansive your actions will become. When your inner
love and its expression are synonymous, you are then one with the Tao,
one inside the love, and one in all.
Knowing
what is happening on both sides of the gate, all you can present is
the passport of your personal history that has been forged over time
by your established personal habits and conditioned instantly by collective
and social behaviours. To enter this sacred gate, you must be de-forged
and de-conditioned by clearing your path, paying your debt, purifying
your body, and distilling your mind. You must smooth your habits with
presence and light, detach like the wind and air from collective behaviours,
decode like water and love your instinctive and habitual memory wires,
demote your ego into an abandoned base and unappreciated place, distill
your rock-like spirit with the mountain and sky, simmer your readily
ignitable fire with caution and ease, and love the temple of your body
and mind like the divine mother does all entitled children and neglected
orphans. The course of life and the tests of its journey enable you
to present your honed and talented gifts -- your already pre-qualified
passport -- as you seek, knock, and ask. The necessary trial of this
fearless march is the message revealed upon hearing the Tao:
loosening the other world by gaining the eternal kingdom.
In Taoism we see our bodies as sacred gates, possessing within all we
need -- the essential goodness created by Heaven and the essential job
inherited from our parents. These body-vessels are but demanding organisms
and hidden mechanisms. Being the conduit of the Tao, our bodies
are organisms, and our minds are mechanisms. Within the organic body,
empty cells flow with biochemical nutrients as each organ demonstrates
its emotional character through seven sensory gates and numerous pressure
points. The seven sensory gates dutifully perform with nine hidden,
cosmic gates. Hundreds of pressure points open the organic operation
and close the mechanical transmission. Within the mechanical mind, conscious
flow is the function of the spiritual gate, color is the visionary gate,
sound is the vibrating gate, mental structure is the realistic gate,
and light is the cosmic gate. The lightest of these springs through
the closing gate, as the heavier blocks the opening gate. These opening
and closing gates are the work of water and fire, the transition of
yin* and yang**, the dance of spirit and ghost.
The gate is, therefore, an inherited blood line, a family secret, national pride, an ethnic boundary, a cultural attitude, a universal matter, a cosmic window, and a spiritual mirror. This is the gate of the Tao. Continue to seek entrance with love and tenacity, and you will be permanently aroused.
* Yin - dark, passive, female, cold, wet, the opposite of yang.
