Meditation for Saturday, July 30: Let the path make you radiant.
I'm posting the meditation for tomorrow early because I'm going offline for the evening. Tomorrow's meditation comes from an ancient book of Chinese wisdom, the Tao Te Ching.
From Chapter 21:
The Tao is dark and unfathomable.
How can it make her radiant?
Because she lets it.
The Chinese character 道 (Tao) means "Way," and is used in this text to refer to the nameless, eternal Way of all nature and life. The Way is unfathomable, with no end, no definition, yet it abides in all living things. When we let ourselves wander without preconceived notions, we find this Way.
When we run, where the path leads is less important than finding it within, feeling in sync with it. It may be rugged, with dark moments, but if we endure with it, it will make us radiant. When you feel the glow after accomplishing a particularly challenging run, consider it a blessing from the eternal!
