Today: “Now is your time to shine. Keep your course.” – a reading from the I Ching

Now is your time to shine.  Keep your course.  Enjoy the respect you have earned.  Keep up.

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

The hexagram represents the sun rising over the earth. It is therefore the symbol of rapid, easy progress, which at the same time means ever widening expansion and clarity.

PROGRESS. The powerful prince
Is honored with horses in large numbers.
In a single day he is granted audience three times.


As an example of progress, this pictures a time when a powerful feudal lord rallies the other lords around the sovereign and pledges fealty and peace. The sovereign rewards him richly and invites him to a closer intimacy.
A twofold idea is set forth here. The actual effect of the progress emanates from a man who’s in a dependent position and whom the others regard as their equal and are therefore willing to follow. This leader has enough clarity of vision not to abuse his great influence but to use it rather for the benefit of his ruler. His ruler in turn is free of all jealousy, showers presents on the great man, and invites him continually to his court. An enlightened ruler and an obedient servant – this is the condition on which great progress depends.

Today: “Why did God create this world? Just to be recognized.” Yogi Bhajan

“Why did God create this world? Just to be recognized. It is his instinct, and the same instinct is in us. We want to be recognized as He wants to be recognized. We are the little image of God, we are little Gods because we have a pineal gland. The best way to be recognized is when your pituitary starts working; then you know past, present, and future; then you don’t care; then you know what is what.” Yogi Bhajan
