MAI - Dance
(click image to enlarge)
All the world is a "Dance." Watch for the playful energy with which all things dance. That anything exists at all is a wonder. The clearer things become to the watchful eye, the more aware we become of an exuberance with which events happen. Things do not simply exist. They dance.
Listen carefully to the harmonies in the wind. They are not random sounds. Hear the music of the night skies, and you cannot help but be moved. This is how all things begin to dance.
Begin to dance, and the larger harmonies take over. Oceans glisten and clouds move across the sky. See the birds fly without limit. When there is small movement, there is small music. When there is great movement, there is great music. At each time, there is total exertion, effortlessly.
Finding the dance is one thing. Letting go of it is another. In letting go, there is no fear of falling, for in falling, one finds a larger dance. Trust in the larger dance.
