The room within centers the eternal. It gives rise to your true nature. This is joy. In the world without, many speak words of knowledge. They do not know. You do not know. What is known lies within. You hold in you the whole of the all. This is the treasure buried in the field. Jesus called it the Kingdom of God. Do not cast aside this knowledge. Do nothing. Sell everything to buy the field.
To do nothing is not inaction. To do nothing is to act from within. To follow twia, not the way of the world. To do nothing is more intuition than thought. Do not overthink the situation. Let it be. Do not be moved. Seek stillness. Gain quietude. The way of the path is tranquil. Serene. Rest in the emptiness of the room within. From emptiness comes all. Let action arise from the still quietude of emptiness. Your non-action accomplishes all. This is joy. In joy all things are done. Joy mirrors the room within.
The raw beginning of endless particles led to form. From your raw emptiness comes stillness. To rest in the stillness of the room within is to do nothing. It is in doing nothing that all is accomplished. The fruit of the vine is joy. Joy arises from nothing. It has no beginning or end. To do nothing is to let joy grow in heart.
The passion of the early trail soon gives way to the arduous trek. When you come to know your path, then passion and arduousness fall away. Each step is joy. When settled on your path, the way will open to you. Lao Tzu advised that once the fish is in the pan, leave it to cook. Do not poke it so much. Do not confront the world. Do not contend with your neighbor. Find peace of heart and comfort in all things. The fish does not need rearranging in the pan to cook its best. Find acceptance in the whole of the all. Handle your own affairs. The speck in your neighbor’s eye can tend to itself. Do no harm. Receive no harm. Hold to the harmony within. Twia will guide you outwardly.
