February 26, 2024 – A

Loss of balance and harmony
is the cause of the disturbance
in the flow of life
and the experience of the clashing rocks,
and the heaving waves
of the wine-dark sea worldwide.

And the cause of imbalance and disharmony
everywhere
is wanting what we have no business having.

Wrong Wanting
is the source of all of our problems today.
Every day.

Starting with Adam and Eve,
which is the most brilliant summation
of The Problem
ever presented,
and it has nothing to do with God
or the creation of the Cosmos,
or Original Sin.

Wrong Wanting is the culprit
behind all of our misery and whining
from the start.

Wrong Wanting results in the loss of paradise,
and the way back into the Garden of Eden
is dying to our desires
by flipping our Wanting from Wrong to Right.

Wanting the right things
and serving Right Wanting with our life
is all it takes to restore balance and harmony
in our day-to-day experience
of living in the flow of life,
aligned with the Tao
and at one with the way of things
worldwide forever.

But, like Adam and Eve,
we think we have a better idea.

And here we are.
