Today: ”Keep up the pressure despite the danger.  Keep your manners and you will be OK.” – a reading from the I Ching

Keep up the pressure despite the danger.  Keep your manners and you will be OK.

Read the text from Richard Wilhelm's and subsequent translations of the I Ching

#10
You tread upon the tail of the tiger.
Not perceiving you as a threat, the startled tiger does not bite.
Success.
You have reached a perilous point in your journey.
This is a real gamble — not a maneuver, not a calculated risk.
The outcome is uncertain.
If it goes as you hope, you will gain — but if it turns against you it will cause serious injury, at least to your plans.
The best tack is extreme caution and a healthy respect for the danger involved.
In terms of a human situation, one is handling wild, intractable people. In such a case one’s purpose will be achieved if one behaves with decorum. Pleasant manners succeed even with irritable people.

Today: “Periodic fasting is well known to clear the mind and to adjust our relationship to many of our emotions and impulses.” – Yogi Bhajan

“Periodic fasting is well known to clear the mind and to adjust our relationship to many of our emotions and impulses. Take the example of Mahatma Ghandi. He fasted, lived simply, and when he died the entire world acknowledged him. Right or wrong, his mind was coherent and his mind awakened the acknowledgement of the psyche of the entire globe.” Yogi Bhajan
