the substantial



The nature of the true fate is giving way,
The nature of the giving way is softness,
The nature of softness is going in,
The nature of going in is welcoming openness,
the nature of openness is heart.

- John Kells

from the English over taichi heartwork of Steven of moorlands


This is a Google translation from the German of a post on Philip Stanley's Qigong blog. The original English text is here. Interesting that the google version is as accurate as it is, and that it reads like a stilted English version of part of the Tao Te Ching. I love the photo, and the rendering of my name.
