Mining Gnosis Through the Tao Te Ching–Verse 53

If our leaders remembered only a little of their gnosis
They would walk the great path of Tao in accordance with the will of the Father and dread putting their egos first.

The path of Heaven’s truth and righteousness is straightforward and smooth
Yet people become sidetracked by worldly desires and cling to their treasured memes.

Our government buildings are exceedingly splendid
While the farmers’ fields lie fallow and choked with weeds—
The silos and storehouses all but empty.

People wear designer clothes and ornate jewelry
And carry gleaming phones at their belts as if they were sharpened blades;
They gorge themselves on rich food and drinks
And accumulate an abundance of material possessions.

Surely, this is nothing but larcenous pride at others’ expense.
It is the opposite of the Father’s Will. Truly!

    Dreams–Parables of the Night 2/26/25

    While we are sleeping, we are open to the leading of the Father and the Fullness of God, because our egos are asleep, and so we can align with our true Self and with the Father more easily. Our ego in sleep relinquishes the control it exerts over our waking lives, and when our hearts are quieted in the hush of sleep, our governing unit of consciousness, our Self, is better able to commune with the Father and the Pleroma.
