Happy Day to ALL!!
By the time you read this, I’ll be in Chicago waiting for my transit to Toronto.
Today I’d like to share with you Sutra 3 from my Tao-Te-zen series: Every Light Has A Circuit
TAO includes the created – visible – and the uncreated, the invisible or subtle.
TE – THE CREATED is made of light. All creation (TE) emerges from the ABSOLUTE, which is Unconditional Love (UCL).
UCL is ABSOLUTE DESIRE – SHE has only Herself to fulfill, and HE is ABSOLUTE WILL – and can fulfill only HIMSELF.
The ceaseless giving of ABSOLUTE WILL fulfills the ceaseless DESIRES of UCL.
Yet, because the ABSOLUTE IS ABSOLUTE, it cannot change; It is Unconditional.
The condition of ABSOLUTE DESIRE creates a positive drawing polarity, while the reciprocal gift of ABSOLUTE WILL creates a negative pushing or electromotive polarity.
The eternal constancy of exchange emergent from UCL as DESIRE and WILL creates a circuit; that circuit creates both light and life.
TAO describes the ABSOLUTE GIVING and RECEIVING of UCL—the Ultimate Relationship, which gives us Creation (TE).
That you are aware of life occurs because you are a conscious being (te).
Zen practice includes awareness of that fact that light and life exist in a circuit.
To be zen, practice awareness of UCL.
Practice being grounded, and use your will effectively, investing your light and your love into the essentials of life.
That is zen.
Love and Chi,
Paul Chek
