It's unfolds before us, moment by moment.
We need not plan it out, simply be aware of the present and act as necessary, we can feel what is right or wrong.
As we learn to feel our heart and listen to its messages the path becomes smoother.
Eventually our way will flow like a river peacefully to the sea.
Awaken to the heart!

Words can
never convey the
beauty of a tree;
to understand it,
you must see it
with your own eyes.
Language cannot capture
the melody of a song;
to understand it,
you must hear it
with your own
ears.
So it is
with the Tao: the
only way to understand
it is to directly experience it.
The subtle truth of the universe
is unsayable and unthinkable.
Therefore the highest
teachings are
wordless.
My own words are not the medicine,
but a prescription; not the destination,
but a map to help you reach it.
When
you get there,
quiet your mind
and close your mouth.
Don't analyze the Tao.
Strive instead to live it:
silently, undividedly,
with your whole
harmonious
being.

Reality is known not through perception but beyond thought and information.
Happiness is not comparative it is total and eternal,
Cease differentiation, delineation and definition and wholeness of being arises from the fragmented world.
Oneness is nothing.
Nothing but peace.

Do not
imagine that an
integral being has the ambition
of enlightening the unaware or raising
worldly people to the divine realm.
To her, there is no self and other,
and hence no one to be raised;
no heaven and hell, and
hence no destination.
Therefore her only
concern is her own
sincerity.

There are
two kinds of blessings.
The first are worldly blessings,
which are won by doing good deeds.
These concern the mind,
and thus are confined
in time and space.
The second
is the integral blessing,
which falls on those who achieve
awareness of the Great Oneness.
This awareness liberates you from
the bondage of mind, time, and
space to fly freely through
the boundless harmony
of the Tao.
Similarly, there are
two kinds of wisdom.
The first is worldly wisdom,
which is a conceptual understanding
of your experiences. Because it follows
after the events themselves, it
necessarily inhibits your
direct understanding
of truth.
The second
kind, integral wisdom,
involves a direct participation
in every moment: the observer and
the observed are dissolved in the light
of pure awareness, and no mental
concepts or attitudes
are present to
dim that light.
The blessings
and wisdom that accrue to
those who practice the Integral Way
and lead others to it are a billion times
greater than all worldly blessings
and wisdom combined.

There is
no one method for
attaining realization of the Tao.
To regard any method as the method
is to create a duality, which can only
delay your understanding of the
subtle truth. The mature person
perceives the fruitlessness of
rigid, external methodologies;
remembering this, he keeps
his attitude unstructured
at all times and thus
is always free to
pursue the
Integral
Way.
He studies the
teachings of the masters.
He dissolves all concepts of duality.
He pours himself out in service to
others. He performs his inner
cleansing and does not
disturb his teacher with
unnecessary entanglements,
thus preserving the subtle
spiritual connection with
the teacher's divine
energy.
Gently eliminating
all obstacles to his own
understanding, he constantly
maintains his unconditional sincerity.
His humility, perseverance, and
adaptability evoke the response
of the universe and fill him
with divine light.
