It is foolish
to think about attaining
realization by any technique.
Make habits of courage, virtue,
and absolute emptiness, and
simply realize what is
already always
present.Wei Wu Wei Ching ~ Bryan Browne Walker

When you try too hard, you defeat your own purpose. Cling to stuff, and you will suffer loss. The Masters make no effort, so they never fail. They aren't attached to things, so they never feel loss.

The greater the attachment, the more acute the suffering. The greater the hoard, the more damaging the loss.

Be content with what you have. Rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.

Surrender yourself humbly; then you can be trusted to care for all things. Love the world as your own self; then you can truly care for all things.

Be like the #Tao. It can't be approached or withdrawn from, benefited or harmed, honored or brought into disgrace. It gives itself up continually. That is why it endures.

The master allows all things to happen. She shapes events as they come. She steps out of the way and lets the Tao speak for itself.

Ein Brückenschlag zwischen einfachen Summen und Entropie -
In the cloud?
Thomas Metzinger suggests that the global neural correlate of consciousness (the minimal set of neuronal events and mechanisms sufficient for the occurrence of the mental states to which they are related (Wikipedia))
…is like an island emerging from the sea—as noted, it is a large set of neural properties underlying consciousness as a whole, underpinning your experiential model of the world in its totality at any given moment. The global NCC has many different levels of description: Dynamically, we can describe it as a coherent island, made of densely coupled relations of cause and effect, emerging from the waters of a much less coherent flow of neural activity. Or we could adopt a neurocomputational perspective and look at the global NCC as something that results from information-processing in the brain and hence functions as a carrier of information. At this point, it becomes something more abstract, which we might envision as an information cloud hovering above a neurobiological substrate. The “border” of this information cloud is functional, not physical; the cloud is physically realized by widely distributed firing neurons in your head. Just like a real cloud, which is made of tiny water droplets suspended in the air, the neuronal activation pattern underlying the totality of your conscious experience is made of millions of tiny electrical discharges and chemical transitions at the synapses. In strict terms, it has no fixed location in the brain, though it is coherent.
Thomas Metzinger, The Ego Tunnel: The Science of the Mind and the Myth of the Self
Now this is, as Metzinger would be the first to admit, highly abstract language to describe the warm, luminous immediacy that is the lived experience of phenomena. The scent of a lover’s hair, the golden light of sunset, damp air on the skin at dawn – an information cloud hovering above a neurobiological substrate? And yet how else could one experience these things?
Oddly enough, for me at least, Metzinger’s technical language comes closer to expressing what might be thought of as one’s soul than any Cartesian plug-in ghost. The beautiful world that is our necessary home is as much the gift of who we are as it is a place “out there”; we are not, and never have been, visitors. Like everything else, we are just what causality does: “the self is but one of the countless manifestations of the Tao. It is an extension of the cosmos.” (David Y F Ho (PDF))

CW: ☯️ Tao Te Ching ☯️ Stephen Mitchell translation Ch. 34
Tao Te Ching
Stephen Mitchell translationCh. 34
The great Tao flows everywhere.
All things are born from it,
yet it doesn’t create them.
It pours itself into its work,yet it makes no claim.
It nourishes infinite worlds,
yet it doesn’t hold on to them.
Since it is merged with all things
and hidden in their hearts,
it can be called humble.
Since all things vanish into it
and it alone endures,
it can be called great.It isn’t aware of its greatness;
thus it is truly great.#TTC #Tao #TaoTeChing #Dao #Daoist #Chinese #translation #Philosophy

CW: ☯️ Tao Te Ching Gia-Fu Feng translation Ch. 30
Tao Te Ching
Gia-Fu Feng translationCh. 30
Whenever you advise a ruler in the way of Tao,
Counsel him not to use force to conquer the universe.
For this would only cause resistance.
Thorn bushes spring up wherever the army has passed.
Lean years follow in the wake of a great war.
Just do what needs to be done.
Never take advantage of power.Achieve results,
But never glory in them.
Achieve results,
But never boast.
Achieve results,
But never be proud.
Achieve results,
Because this is the natural way.
Achieve results,
But not through violence.Force is followed by loss of strength.
This is not the way of Tao.
That which goes against the Tao comes to an early end.#TTC #Tao #TaoTeChing #Dao #Daoist #Chinese #translation #Philosophy

"The notes themselves—the sound waves, that is—are heard alike by musician and nonmusician and are universally acknowledged to be real in the purely physical sense. But what about the melody itself? Is it something real or does it exist only in the mind or imagination […] The musician does not need to have "faith" that there is a melody, nor does he have to accept the existence of the melody on some scriptural authority; he obviously has a direct experience of the melody itself. And once the melody is heard, it is impossible ever again to doubt it."
