I remember Sat H., my Taoist [shīfu 師傅/师傅] while I was still his disciple [túdì 徒弟] telling me once,

“ɪᴛ ɪs ɴᴏᴛ ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴛʜᴇʏ ᴛᴇʟʟ ʏᴏᴜ ᴏʀ ᴡʜᴀᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ʜᴇᴀʀ, ɪᴛ ɪs ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ʜᴏᴡ ʏᴏᴜ ʀᴇʟᴀᴛᴇ ᴛᴏ ɪᴛ”

Proving that relational values are what makes the MAYA, [the illusion of ALL that IS] 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓮𝔁𝓹𝓮𝓻𝓲𝓮𝓷𝓬𝓮, as one synthesizes individually.

These aspects operate magnetically generating a duality, Yet its perception in the NOW is 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓵𝓮𝓷𝓼, the EGO, [Εγώ], the self-Identity, how one identifies with the psyche (soul), 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓮𝔁𝓹𝓮𝓻𝓲𝓮𝓷𝓬𝓮 𝓘𝓢 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓻𝓭 𝔀𝓪𝔂.

ᴛʜᴇ ᴛᴀᴏɪsᴛ ɪɴᴛᴇɢʀᴀᴛɪᴏɴ ᴏғ ʏɪɴ ᴀɴᴅ ʏᴀɴɢ ᴛʜʀᴏᴜɢʜ ᴛʜᴇɪʀ ᴛʀɪɴɪᴛʏ ᴏғ ᴛɪᴀɴ, ʀᴇɴ, ᴅɪ - ʜᴇᴀᴠᴇɴ, ᴍᴀɴ, ᴇᴀʀᴛʜ [ᴛʀɪɢʀᴀᴍ]. A trinity is a seemingly universal model. Many Taoists see the stars as "knots in the 'net of heaven'" connecting everything in "heaven and earth", thus humanity is here to experience this connection.

Carl G. Jung made a whole practice of integration via shadow work [Anima-Animus], within these relational values, adding observations on Astrological and Taoist practices (I Ching) through his patients. Jung noticed synchronous acausal events converging in coincidences, as powerful and meaningful insights that emerged within these disconnected relationships. He coined the phenomenon as Synchronicity.

Not too far away in time, David Bohm in quantum mechanics, proposed interconnectedness and interdependence as the Buddha also implied in his middle way, Bohm’s Dia-logos [to see through to meaning] is a deep practice that has part of its roots in ancient Greece. The emergence of a new state while practicing deep listening allows a new experience in the becoming. It is about deep inquiry and learning, sharing new perspectives and social constructs [beliefs], The objective of a Dialogue is shared meaning not trying to influence [have power over] an outcome.

Alignment: the arrangement of a line to support a process. To position to situate… it is objective and relational - sudden unexpected shocks can reposition placement and then one cares to observe what is needed to fulfill an experience of prosperity.

Abundance: [overflow, to rise in a wave from abound- undare] is a wave and as such needs to be in convergence with the pulsation thus calibrated. All established in “relational values”

-My thoughts this morning upon waking*

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗱𝗿𝘂𝗺

Swinging my body sideways finding the rhythm that feels like bliss.

No pressure to create the best for others

-the drum of external validation is very loud-

Many confuse their uniqueness with what is expected to be done to succeed.

Succeed at what

Being rich and famous?

What does that even mean?

If you care about freedom,

You know that relationship to the outside world is slavery in disguise of power…

Power is another confusing term-idea:
