Tao Te Ching Chapter 16-7 Destiny


Today's Tao

This is called going back to their destiny. (Ch.16)


"Destiny" is a misleading but useful word.

In principle, you are the one who creates your destiny (or so-called reality) in your hologram.

Nevertheless, if you think that you are responsible for it and obliged to act directly on it, you are mistaken.

You had better not act directly on your hologram.

Let it flow by accepting all.

In this sense, the idea that a god is responsible for your destiny is a useful device.

By thinking so, you can suppress your obsession to act, or do something.

You don't have to do anything.

You just accept all.

Then, your hologram will transform itself.

Don't worry.


I sincerely wish that you will read the text in Tao by Matsumoto / Chapter 16 / Go back.

It is about destiny.

You are the one who creates it.

Mata ashita. See you tomorrow.
