#42, line 5, #27

Whirlwinds and Thunder:
When the Superior Person encounters saintly behavior, he adopts it; when he encounters a fault within, he transforms it.

Progress in every endeavor.
You may cross to the far shore.

Get ready to ride a tide of accelerated growth toward self-actualization.
A joyful awareness of the best within you, coupled with an acceptance of your Shadow, will provide a greater repertoire, a much bolder vision, and new depth and clarity that will compel you to expand your horizons.

Your benevolence has been recognized by those above you.
Your plans will greatly benefit all, and the favor you seek is as good as granted before you even ask.

Beneath the immobile Mountain the arousing Thunder stirs:
The Superior Person preserves his freedom under oppressive conditions by watching what comes out of his mouth, as well as what goes in.

Endure and good fortune will come.
Nurture others in need, as if you were feeding yourself.
Take care not to provide sustenance for those who feed off others.
Stay as high as possible on the food chain.

You are a conduit in this instance, able to provide the sustenance needed by others.
Position yourself to nourish the truly needy and worthy.
Avoid situations where you might be coerced into supporting the parasites and vermin who deprive your true charges.
Your own nourishment is an issue here, too.
Remember Lao Tzu’s three Great Treasures:
Only the person possessed of Compassion, Modesty and Frugality can remain fit enough to stay free of desperation and keep control of the situation.

Today: “Preserve yourself. That is an art. It is an art to preserve yourself.” Yogi Bhajan

“Preserve yourself. That is an art. It is an art to preserve yourself. It is an art to selflessly serve somebody. It is an art to give your total everlasting friendship. It is an art to understand all activity so caused by you in good faith, because you are a living being. It is an art of gratitude. The attitude of gratitude is the highest living experience in a human life. I don’t care whether you believe in Jesus or not, whether you believe in God or not, whether you believe in Buddha or not. This is not my problem, it is your problem. But be grateful for every moment, for you must remember this moment will never come back.” Yogi Bhajan

Sat Nam!
