Without going out of your door, you can know the ways of the world. Without peeping through your window, you can see the Way of Heaven. The farther you go, the less you know. Thus, the Sage knows without traveling, sees without looking, and achieves without struggle. — Lao Tse

Wu-wei is the principle of non-action. It is an integral part of Taoist philosophy and is a non-dualistic form of action; by choosing to not act, the Tao, or energy of the cosmos, flows unimpeded through you. This is a good state to be in. And this is why wu-wei is so important. One can be both true to his or her own nature and allow things to balance out accordingly, in their own time. This state of effortless equilibrium aligns the self with everything there is and hence opens pathways to new learning and joy.

It’s all newness. It’s all new.
Every letter of this sentence.
Every breath inhaled – what of any of this has happened before?

And is this significant?
Yes. But only when lived as newness.

When newness itself is lived it all gains meaning;
it all has to be new, because nothing is allowed to be old.
And yet our all-too-powerful brains jump to nonexistent past and future times,
all unreal, jumping simply because they can.

Whatever you have to do, make it real,
cause there’s no time but this one – and it’s never happened before.
And as soon as it’s over,
it didn’t.

So put that in your pipe and smoke it:

Kodama of Gaia

Atokirina of Eywa

More on the Zampakuto Rebellion as it is unfolding.

A way of unwalking. A machine of unworking.
A word that is mute, a note that is deaf.
A house that un-houses. An act that itself undoes.
The mind which unminds.

Win. That is all.
