5- Tao Te Ching

The Heaven and Earth seemingly has no pitiness,


it sees everything like straw-dogs;


The master seemingly has no pitiless,

He sees everyone like straw-dogs.

Between heaven and earth is like a bellows:


it is empty yet infinitely productive.


when you push it, more can be produced.


Too many words will be wit exhausted,

There fore, rather keep the empty core.

The deepest compassion is like I don’t feel sorry for you, though I will hold you when you are going through it.

The wise man has less words.

Translated by Chiyan Wang

A prayer for the new year

A Prayer for the New Year

A new year is coming to the world again.

All things change from old to new.

In this auspicious time, I pray for all:

Harmony in families and happiness in life,

Stability in emotions and dignity in character;

Fulfillment at work and health in body and mind;

Improvement in cultivation and increase in wisdom;

Joy throughout the universe and peace on earth.

In the new year, we would like to achieve:

That every intention we have may be beneficial to all,

That everything we say may be compassionate and encouraging,

That everything we do may be a blessing to others.

We pray for awareness,

allow us to promote the well-being of community,

We pray for inner strength,

Allow us to progress on the way to awakening.

The new energy infuses the new year;

Allow us to start everything anew.

A new spirit infuses the new year;

Allow us to start everything anew.

I wish you all Happy New Year!

Chiyan

Tao Te Ching 5

The Heaven and Earth seemingly has no pity, 


it sees everything like sacrificial straw-dogs;


The master seemingly has no pity,

He sees everyone like sacrificial straw-dogs.

Between heaven and earth is like a bellows:


it is empty yet infinitely capable.


The more you push it, the more wind/turmoil bring forth.


Too many words will be a waste of wit,  

There fore, rather keep the empty core.


Let it come, let it go without attachement.

Sunday group practice for trained Taoist Light Qigong students

Dear Life-energy Cultivators,

I hope you are staying well and healthy.

It is time to re-start the Sunday Group. It will be held on every other Sunday. You can join either online via Zoom or participate in-person outdoors in a private back yard in Summerland.

I will email you a Zoom link, and you can just simply click it for the Zoom video conference at the scheduled time. Meeting in-person will follow strict social distancing, disinfecting the space, and checking participants’ temperature; in-person participants are limited to four people; while online participation has no limitation..

Please let me know if you can join on the following Sundays for 2020: Nov. 8th, Nov. 22nd, Dec. 6th, & Dec. 20th; from 10:30 am—12:00 noon.

(I am open to change the time to afternoon if it works better for most of people)

We usually have 15 min Tao Te Ching Study, 60 min guided Taoist Light Level I Qigong practice, and a 15 min Group Qi Healing. It is $45 /per session.


It will be easier to keep your practice with support and practice correctly with guidance.

Please stay the way of life and follow on the way of light. Thank you!

Tao Te Ching 4

The Tao is like a deep well,
used but never used up.
It is like the eternal void:
filled with infinite possibilities.

The Tao:

Smooths out the sharp edges,
Harmonizes the disputes,
Softens the intensity, and
Merges all into earthly dust.


It is hidden but always present.
I don't know who gave birth to it.
It is older than Heaven and Earth.

Tao Te Ching - 3

If a country over esteems its leader,
People will fight for leadership.
If a country over values what is scarce,
People begin to steal it.
If a country does not show off what is desirable,
People will not lose their conscience.

The Master leads
by emptying people's ambitions
and full-filling their inner-core,
by reducing their desires
and increasing their true strength.

When there is no need for deceit or greed,
The cunning ones shall restrain themselves.

Practice non-doing,
and everything will be accomplished.

Tao Te Ching - 2

When people see some things as beautiful,
other things become ugly.
When people see some things as good,
other things become bad.

Being and non-being create each other.
Difficult and easy support each other.
Long and short define each other.
High and low depend on each other.
Before and after follow each other.

Therefore the Master
acts without doing anything
and teaches without saying anything.
Things arise and she lets them come;
things disappear and she lets them go.
She has but doesn't possess,
acts but doesn't expect.
When her work is done, she forgets it.
That is why it lasts forever.
