2.14.2
Do not reveal your power. Be meek in your ways. In Psalms 37:11 you are told the lowly shall inherit the land, and delight in abundant well-being. Jesus reminds you of this in saying, blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Step away from conflict. Do not contend. The world is violent enough on its own. Do not add to it. To be strong, show weakness. You will gain all. To reveal, you must first hide. Then you will inherit what truly is yours.
This is the way of the path: to remain in the depth of the pool. There you have no edges. No sharpness. You are not clever. Yield to the way. Do not provoke. Withdraw when challenged. The world is excited by opposition. It severs unity. People run amok like headless chickens, yet they are docile when fed with loving-kindness.
Do not seek pleasure. You will find pain. Happiness will drown in sorrow. Pleasure and pain, happiness and sorrow breathe in and out like yin and yang. Seek balance. The world does not shy from those in harmony with themselves. To be in union with yourself is to be free of harm. To be free of harm is to live in joy. Joy is the natural way.
You are the purity that is love. There is no other. Do not be caught up in form. Form is deceiving. It garners differences where there are none. Do not be deceived by perceptions. Do not distinguish between this and that. Then fear replaces the purity of love. Then death prevails. Fear distinguishes pleasure and pain, happiness and sorrow. Love in its purity does not know fear. Harm is not its companion. Do not deny the way of the path. Be in harmony with the whole of the all. Love in its purity has no distinctions. It cannot be compared. Do not try.
There are no distinctions between twia and totality. There is only one. There is no other. Do not limit yourself to the body. It does not see. What is there to distinguish in illusion but false perceptions of this and that. What is there to do in illusion but nothing. The body is but a dream. Life has no meaning. The me of the body fades to oblivion. Do nothing. It will be done. Do not make distinctions. You will find the eternal in all. The eternal has no comparison. Bring dispassion to all situations. Let peace prevail. What is there to do but share in joy. Let the river follow its course. Twia knows the way. Live simply. Without desire. Settle into the room within.
