Walking meditations on Tao Te Ching

Dear friends
During this event we will concentrate on verses from chapter 16 of Tao Te Ching. We will reflect together this chapter and then will go for a 20 minute walking meditation in the park!!
Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu is a chinese classical text with 81 verses of wisdom. Though Tao Te Ching has been interpreted subjectively according to who is reading it, for a seeker on the path of wisdom it is a wonderful and precise guide to the process of becoming an enlightened being, to accomplish, within oneself, a high level of spiritual cultivation.

Verse 16 of Tao Te Ching

"Allow yourself to become empty.
Abide in stillness.
The ten thousand beings rise and flourish
while the sage watches their return.
Though all beings exist in profusion
they all end up returning to their source.
Returning to their source is called tranquility.
This is called returning to original nature.
Original nature is called constant renewal.
To understand constant renewal is called illumination.
To not understand constant renewal is to invite disaster.
To know the unchanging is to be enlightened.
To embrace the eternal is to be all-encompassing.
To be all-encompassing leads to nobility of spirit.
To be noble of spirit is to unite with Heaven.
To unite with Heaven leads to union with Tao.
To attain union with Tao leads to immortality,
living eternally without fear."

I welcome you towards a fruitful reflection and meditation experience!!
