Guest guest Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 Dearest Advaitins It is my pleasure to share with you all the following excerpt At birth, a person is flexible and flowing. At death, a person becomes rigid and blocked. Consider the lives of plants and trees: during their time of greatest growth, they are relatively tender and pliant. But when they are full grown or begin to die, they become tough and brittle. The tree which has grown up and become rigid is cut into lumber. Whatever is flexible and flowing will tend to grow. Whatever is rigid and blocked will atrophy and die. Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
