Living in the Tao: Guide to Self Discover
In the realms of time, we were influenced by mythical schools, religions, governments and now corporations. They convinced us to give them, our time and energy (Essence), for the good of others, but mostly for themselves. They promise they will take care of us or save us. When we give everything to them, we have no time or energy left for ourselves, and in the end we have nothing except their promises. Other systems taught us how to cultivate, and grow our energy like a seed into a tree, but after a while, they told us they needed our energy for the good of others, and they convinced us to give them our tree for their own use. And other systems even went further, showing us how to grow flowers from our tree; and after the flowers blossom, they have us pick them only for their beauty and sell them to others. But the Tao teaches us not only how to plant (Root), and grow our seed (Energy or Essence) into a tree, but also how to sexually cultivate and flower the seed to bear fruit, without losing our essence (Original Seed).
