“The strength of the man does not lie in what he has, but what he can give. Only those can give who have the capacity to tap into the Universe. If the Universe is not in your mind, your heart cannot give.” Yogi Bhajan

Today: Reconciling differences – from the I Ching
Differences seem irreconcilable. What should be understood is that differences of individuality are internal and need not preclude coming together over external matters that affect both parties. Through minimal discourse small things may be resolved even if great undertakings may not succeed given the climate of divergent views. What precludes any progress toward reaching agreement is the notion of each party that the other is the enemy. Continue reading “Today: Reconciling differences – from the I Ching”

Today: Be modest and lie low – from the I Ching
In humility, remain supremely modest. Do not push too much nor bring too much attention to yourself. Do not focus too closely or narrowly on your goals. It would be very easy for you to be blindsided by unforeseen attacks. Instead, wait for your message to be heard and your example seen. Soon, your resonance with the spirit of the people will be recognized. An unbounded enthusiasm will spring from their hearts as they join in the cosmic flow with you. It is a primal dance that will be self-sustaining and far reaching.
Today: A common goal – from the I Ching
Enjoy gathering and working with people of like mind. Engage where it is truly useful. Avoid encouraging people who are merely seeking your influence for their own ends. Remain neutral with people who are simply feeding off you. Then they will begin to trust you for who you are.
The task at hand is to lead the world out of confusion and back to order. Establish a common goal among your friends that will unite forces that are now tending in different directions. With determination and caution each will find the means of contributing to that goal and bringing it to success.

“Dharma is the discipline of living the truth; not knowing or reading the truth, not gossiping, discussing it, not the logic of it, not the reason of it.” Yogi Bhajan

Today: Gentle persuasion – from the I Ching
Speak softly and act gently with confidence. Your intentions will be carried on the wind. With your persistence, their impact, not necessarily felt, will be far-reaching and effective. Resistance, no matter how dense, intransigent and rigid, cannot hold under ceaseless influence.
Have a clear goal with a clear direction. Follow through on your promises and lead by example.
“The greatest blunder you can commit…” Yogi Bhajan
“The greatest blunder you can commit is to think that the mind and soul are yours. They are not finite, they cannot belong to finite. They are infinite, they belong to infinite. Just think that. Happiness will come to you.” Yogi Bhajan
(via Ram Anand)
Today: Under siege – from the I Ching
Current peaceful circumstances will give way to calamatous events against which there is no effective defense. Walls built to protect will not hold. Resorting to violent resistance will not work.
The only solution is to hold your own among your closest circles and wait it out. Hold firm, hold together, hold back. Hold firmly to great creative powers and store them up. Hold firm in the truth. Hold firm in devoted caring and nurturing.
Strengthen your character by learning the lessons of the past. Apply your knowledge and experience to serve in whatever capacity is useful. Get out there and do something.
Meditation: LA950 A00214 20000214 Develop Self-Reliance
Yogi Bhajan Los Angeles, February 14, 2000
Sit straight in a cross-legged p
osition. Extend the arms forward at shoulder level parallel to the floor, with elbows slightly bent. Palms are face down, with fingers spread, tough and tight like nails—these are your five antennae. Eyes are closed. Move the arms rhythmically straight back and forward about 5 inches. Reach from the shoulders, affect your chest and spine. Chant the Prosperity Mantra Har Har Har Har Gobinday by Niranjan Kaur. Continue for 11 minutes.

Today: Thunder, shock and transformation – from the I Ching
When calamity strikes, and it will, those around you will react and lose clarity of vision. They will suffer for it. If you do not react, you can escape serious consequences. Keep still until composure and clarity are restored. If you withdraw in time from the affair at hand you will remain free of mistakes and injury. That will draw resentment and possible contempt from your neighbors, but pay no mind to that. Continue reading “Today: Thunder, shock and transformation – from the I Ching”
Today: Rebirth – from the I Ching
You are about to experience a rebirth — about to be given another chance, a new lease on life. It is a time in which tensions and complications begin to be eased. Return to the regular order of life as soon as deliverance is achieved. If there are any residual matters that ought to be attended to, it should be done as quickly as possible. A return to normalcy calls for a decision and is an act of self-mastery. Pardon mistakes and forgive misdeeds. Begin again with a clean slate.
