"People's projections can be very interesting" 😂💯%Thank You, Both!🙏

[@lorrainedrohan23]

Receiving this down to Earth understanding and Wisdom is Divine Timing for me. I have been meditating and contemplating on the Tao for nearly 3 years now and I still sense this is only the beginning of my absorption of its Truth. Deep gratitude to you both for supporting and empowering me to keep focussed and understand the ancient Wisdom of All That Is. Infinite Angel Blessings ❤❤❤

[@sanja12]

Another great translation of Tao te Ching chapter! 🙏 Having the flexible mind and mastering the change without losing our own principles or grip is the way (Tao) 🙌🏻 ☯️

[@dianesmith8183]

Thank you both for giving your time to help us! Much respect, love & hugs ❤

[@tobinharris8107]

Empty, spontaneous and free. Listen to your heart, not your mind. Thank you two; love this series. ☯️👍

[@mmmmarada]

Amazing message. I' am going to show this to my daughter who is about to find her first job.

[@watersprite333]

So true, navigating the jungle of life these days, you need to have that flexibility, however, it's not easy when you have a certain belief system and you try your best each day, to live, breath and just be your authentic self. Yep agreed, one's intentions are major important; namaste & TY.

[@user-mf9kb1bb8w]

What kind of flexibility you mean?🤔

[@watersprite333]

@@user-mf9kb1bb8w Just being adaptable to changes in circumstances, situations, socio-economic fluctuations. If you are balanced and centred within your core, it still may impact you, but, not as badly. Namaste.

[@lyellmurray7355]

Thank you, Jason and Gayoung. Namaste 🕉️💜🙂

[@jessiekalff]

Those obstacles can be a path back to ourselves….(Li) Have only experienced this recently.. 🌻

[@Pandatruth]

Love this series

[@lyellmurray7355]

Thank you again for this lesson. It's a Sunday morning classic. Focus and intention. The baseline for any spiritual practice. Namaste 🕉️💜🙂

[@ShraddaNiche]

Thanks Guys! Namaste

21:24 ; I think it is Your choice, what riches you wish to pursue, and aquire, whether they be corporeal or not, and one should learn to notice the patterns for what they are, and not be upset when you don't achieve or perceive the accomplishment you desire, because there could be more to learn, or understand about the dynamic. One's gain isn't Your Loss, and vice versa 🌞

[@johnc.6645]

As usual I really enjoyed your interpretation ot the Tao. You both do a wonderful job.

[@christineweathers1965]

Wonderful talk. I cant thank you enough🌻

[@supercruchynoodle]

Hi Jason and Gayoung, thank you for your message. ❤

[@billwhite9701]

Thank for meaningful content 😊❤

[@ToddSloanIAAN]

So that part you guys started reading in the beginning when you go rushing about that's not the way of the tao... That is so real for me. I actually get it.

[@ejgaming87]

love you guys, keep it up. thanks!

[@sakthishorts]

Thanks! Jai guru Dev ❤

[@JasonGregoryAuthor]

Thank you, my dear friend. We appreciate you deeply. Have a great day.

[@heavenlypath1065]

There's nothing wrong doing something for passion and money both are equally important one satisfies the soul the other fulfills the physical ☯️

Thank you for a great message.🙂

[@JH-th9th]

certainly not about immediate gratification...takes flexibility and patients mixed with pure intentions about what you want to achieve

[@notadoctora7956]

Are you saying that an activist can never be a Taoist? Or Taoist philosophy does not contain activism? And what is the definition of activists?

[@patrickhickey6440]

Taxes don’t seem to be the Tao because taxes are trying to make something happen

[@bajadasderieles]

In 2024, don't set new year financial goals without consulting a financial adviser. there expertise ensure a solid plan for success. Building wealth involves developing good habits like regular putting money away in intervals for solid investments.

[@Brittanyfineface]

Thanks for the advice! I'm new to financial planning and wasn't sure where to start. Any tips on finding a reliable financial adviser or resource to guide beginners?

[@Bellaellabeauty]

@GuillermoCarlos-span How can I participate in this? I sincerely aspire to establish a secure financial future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?

What was the story of Lao Tzu? He left the place that was not safe. So if I were a resident of New York State or California or other woke mind virus lands, I would leave. Yet there are few places that are devoid of the insane leftists. Lao Tzu was a master, and chose to leave. In the western world is there a place to be free? As one who has not been trained to live in nature and thrive, I am doomed to remain in cities. Even if I were capable of living in nature, laws and land ownership of others would prevent me from doing it. I lived in a minivan for two years. It was fine, but it was illegal in all cities. Now I only own a motor scooter as my transportation. I can't live _in_ that. :) Without any personal savings or wealth, I'm forced to work at jobs that I don't like. I need a place of my own, away from the world; so that I can release the remaining barriers to enlightenment. If the universe is steering me in life, it certainly has taken me to some strange places. Could it be that there is no escape? Where would Lao Tzu go today if he lived in the USA?
