Tao of Life Tele Study

This month’s book selection, Love of Mother Universe, Chapter 45 is from Vlad Iliev.

I find the invocation “The Way” helpful of how one can cultivate the integration to be nothing and something in daily life. I would like to hear others’ experiences and practices of staying with the Way. Thank you! 

 

Chapter 45: The Way

 

I stay with the Way.

 

To be Nothing is to be whole.

To be something is to be partial.

To be Nothing is to be with the wholeness of all things.

The omni-present is therefore Nothing.

 

To be something is not complete or long-lasting.

To be something is the limited life of all things.

 

To embrace Nothing is to embrace all things.

To hold something, including a holy name or establish worship,

is to hold what is partial and limited.

All holy names such as God, Allah or Budha

are mere projections from the Way of Integral Infinity.

 

The Way cannot be held onto or insisted upon.

Whatever can be held onto is not the Way of the whole truth.

 

This is the Way.​​
