When the world follows the Tao, Horses plow the fields. When the world turns away from the Tao, Horses are prepared for war. No disaster is greater than discontent. No mistake is greater than greed. Therefore, true contentment brings true fulfillment. Translated by Chiyan Wang Edited by R

People often hope for a good life, but have you considered a good death? A good life does not always lead to a good death — but a good death always reflects a life well-lived* (beyond worldly perspectives). Most people do not fear death itself, but the suffering that can come before it: illnesses,...

IMPERFECT PERFECTION
Perfection that glimmers may be hollow.
Wholeness that shines may be incomplete.
Life is always half and half, flowing in balance.
Those who chase only the perfect appearance are easily misled.

Can we embrace imperfect perfection?

Yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the harvest moon is the fullest and brightest of the year.

On a sunny day, we might wear sunglasses and a hat to protect ourselves from the strong sunlight. But the moon shines gently in the darkness, lighting our path so we can walk safely. Moonlight represents the pure, uncontaminated energy within our hearts, bringing peace and joy from within.

Although on the lunar calendar, the 15th day is traditionally called the full moon day, but the moon often appears even rounder and fuller on the 16th. If you have time tonight, step outside to breathe in the cool moon energy—let it purify our body and mind and fill our being with its magnificent light.
