Heaven is subtle, intimate connection; Earth is gradual progress.
Man is riding excessive energy;
Not a good time for rapid advancement because politically nuclear.
Bobby should rather fly low versus seeking the highest office.
Perhaps shoot for ministerial level position to root out corruption.
Breaking point reached, the center cannot hold
with both internal and external obstacles abounding
through a Party process
Biden will retire from the political fray
giving all a chance to reconnect with core principles and relations.
Forthright speech at the highest Courts, Royal or otherwise, is called for
since Heaven & Earth indicate a time of shocking leadership change
cutting through frivolous, unrealistic approaches
by returning to bedrock dignity & tradition.
However, there is only one yielding line beneath five solid lines, symbolizing that the yin element is advancing and approaching the yang elements. When King Wen saw this happening, he heightened his vigilance. He realized that an unworthy person was worming his way into favour at the court.
By maintaining Discipline and prevailing in the Courts
and by remaining internally calm and externally still
by paying attention to the smallest detail
and being neither behind or ahead of each step on the path
the fruition sought, and now close to being realized, will be achieved
though a perfect state of resolution never lasts.
Yet, we cannot perceive or even begin to measure either of the 3 expressed Dimensions mentioned here without the position from which we observe the intersection of these planes. A position that is in and of itself a separate and distinct Dimensional plane of Space /Time.
This assumption, that there is a ‘third party’ view, a view without a mind or soul, a mechanical basis of all Reality, is the modern age’s Philosophical Devil.
Ladies and gentlemen, the metaphysical elephant in the room: Mind.
all-encompassing Heaven above
all-manifesting multifarious Earth below
this living, breathing wakeful world is Buddha!
‘neoplatonism was the philosophical version of the Silk Road that bound the East and the West together giving them a shared lingua franca, lingua philosophia, by which they could deeply enter into transformative dialogue and intercultural exchange with each other.’
Flowers in their flowering communicate the lovely enlightened language of Flowering Being
With manifold qualities of form, texture, colour, temperature, scent, beauty, sensitivity.
As with flowers so with all, from microscopic universes to macrocosmic spiralling galaxies…
Reality is more like a dream world conjured by a combination of one overall Being or Consciousness field within which unlimited particular living points of view including yourself, myself, the birds, the bees, the flowers and the trees and so on ad infinitum, each of whose perceptions constitute a unique dimension of ‘reality’, something I like to call our ‘Experiential Continuum’.
Continuity in that the seeming gap between the wisdom of a fully realized Buddha and the ignorance of an ordinary sentient being mired in emotion-laden samsara is actually non-existent, much as the top and bottom sides of the same hand are mutually co-existent. In the jargon: wisdom and confusion co-emerge, or are ‘not-two’.
For reasons which Iain well describes, we have devalued Goodness, Beauty and Truth, appreciation and experience of which can be called ‘the sacred’, and instead dedicated ourselves to a limited, literal, left brain dominated approach which prides itself on reducing the complex terrain that is ‘reality’ into a clear, compact map and then goes on to believe that the map is real and what it is mapping, the actual terrain, is largely fictive.
