Tao, in its passing out of the mouth, is weak and tasteless. If you look at it, there is nothing to fill the eye. If you listen to it, there is nothing to fill the ear. But if you use it, it is inexhaustible. Lao Tsze {c.604~531bc} This painting is dedicated to Nicholas and Helena Roerich whom I admire greatly.

Hand-drawn design with colour pencil. Has been sitting on the back-burner for quite awhile. Was finally motivated to finish it for the T-Shirt Revolution Challenge… Here’s a brighter version of the tee: [printing by it’s nature is darker than what you see on screen, but the quality of the tees here at RB are great. I have my Muerte tee and the colour worked out great.]

OK, another weird one. This design combines symbols i found on a long scroll in a Taoist art text. The central image is the ying and yang symbols conjoined with the seed, or the meditator in the middle, surrounded by the phases of the moon. The pai of dragons were done from an image from the public domain, as it’s way over mingtees’ drafting abilities. The white circle with a dot in the middle is a stylized pearl. No doubt this will require some serious revision, but for now i figured i’d just toss it out there.

The spirit of the valley never dies. / It is called the mysterious female. / The gate of the mysterious female / Is the root of heaven and earth. / Barely seen, it hardly seems there, / Yet use will never exhaust it (Lao Tzu)

This is the first in a series of images I created from rocks that I gathered along the Snake River on my daily walks with Wiley. I hope you enjoy my latest obession. :o) This series is called ‘Daily Tao’. Chinese symbols taken from the book ‘Tao Daily Meditations’ by Deng Ming-Dao. The book was given to me by a dear friend, and former lover. I enjoy picking it up and reading the entries, finding something new to take from them each time. From ‘Tao Daily Meditations’ on Laughter: Hilly village lanes, / Whitewashed sunlit walls. / Cerulean sea. / The laughter of children. We as adults dwell upon our grizzled complexities, our existential anxieties, and our preoccupations with responsibilities. We hear the merriment of children and may sigh over our lost childhoods. Although we can no longer fit into our old clothes and become young again, we can take comfort in the optimisim of children. Their rejoicing can gladden us all.

This series is called ‘Daily Tao’. Chinese symbols taken from the book ‘Tao Daily Meditations’ by Deng Ming-Dao. The book was given to me by a dear friend, and former lover. I enjoy picking it up and reading the entries, finding something new to take from them each time. From ‘Tao Daily Meditations’ on worry: Worry is an addiction / That interferes with compassion. Worry is a problem that seems to be rampant. Perhaps it is due to the nature of our overly advanced civilization; perhaps it is a measure or our own spiritual degeneracy. Whatever the source, it is clear that worry is not useful. It is a cancer of the emotions – concern gone compulsive. It eats away at body and mind. It does no good to say, ‘Don’t think about it.’ You’ll only worry more. It is far better to keep walking your path, changing what you can. The rest must be dissolved in compassion. In this world of infants with immune deficiencies, racial injustice, economic imbalance, personal violence, and international conflict, it is impossible to address everyone’s concerns. Taking care of yourself and doing something good for those whom you meet is enough. That is compassion, and we must exercise it even in the face of the overwhelming odds. If we all did this, what would our world be like….......? / XO Jenny

...more of the Daily Tao Series…...... From the book ‘Tao Daily Meditations’ by Deng Ming-Dao on Joy Do your devotions make you happy? / Is your life a joyous song? In all this talk about spiritual devotion, there is one simple fact. You have to like it. It should make you happy. It is unfortunate that so much coercion, unhappiness, bitterness, guilt, and fear become wrapped up in spirituality. Why can’t we simply do things out of joy? Practicing spirituality isn’t a matter of drudgery. It isn’t a matter of fear. It isn’t for fitting into a social group. It has nothing to do with status. Being devoted to holiness in your life is a matter of joy and celebration. When you sit down to meditate, a smile should come to your lips and a feeling of joy should permeate your body. When you go to consecrated ground to give thanks and celebrate, you should do so not because of the day of the week or out of the habit of ritual, but because this is the best way that you know how to adore your gods and express the wonder of being on this earth. Yes, yes, there is much unhappiness in this existence. That unhappiness is part of the overall field of negativity. There are also positive things in life, and spirituality is foremost among them. So whenever we practice our spiritual devotions, let it be in gladness and joy.

As a thing the way is / Shadowy, indistinct. / Indistinct and shadowy, / Yet within it is an image; / Shadowy and indistinct. / Yet within it is a substance. / Dim and dark, / Yet within it is an essence. / This essence is quite genuine / And within it is something that can be tested. / From the present back to antiquity / Its name never deserted it. (Lao Tzu)
