A Formless Wholeness

有物混成,先天地生。寂兮寥兮,独立不改,周行而不殆,可以为天下母。
吾不知其名,字之曰道,强为之名曰大。大曰逝,逝曰远,远曰反。
故道大,天大,地大,王亦大。域中有四大,而王居其一焉。
人法地,地法天,天法道,道法自然。
There is a formless wholeness, born before heaven and earth. Silent and vast, it stands alone and unchanging, moving in cycles without weariness. It may be the mother of all things. I do not know its name; I call it the Tao. Forced to name it, I call it Great. Greatness means passing on, passing on means reaching far, reaching far means returning. Thus the Tao is great, heaven is great, earth is great, and the ruler is also great. Within the realm, there are four great ones, and the ruler is one of them. Humans follow earth, earth follows heaven, heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows what is natural.

This reminds me that beneath all my busyness and desires, there is a deeper, still essence that connects me to the universe. I am not separate from this natural flow; my life is part of a greater cycle of arising, passing, and returning.

Bugün ne yapmalıyım?

Today, I will sit quietly for five minutes, breathing deeply, and reflect on the phrase 'the Tao follows what is natural.' I will let go of one need to control and simply observe the world as it is.
