Lao Tzu: To the Still Mind, the Whole Universe Opens


To a Still Mind, the Whole Universe Opens 

Sometimes, when too much is going on in life, worry and anxiety overwhelm us. 
 But through practicing stillness and silence we can quiet an overactive mind 
and regain our mental strength and fortitude.  

No matter what the difficulty, 
calmness and tranquility will lead us through troubled times.

Tranquility

 "Allow the heart to empty itself of all turmoil! 
Retrieve the utter tranquility of the mind from which you issued."

Lao Tzu

Quietude

"Although all forms are dynamic, and we all grow and transform, 
each of us is compelled to return to our root. Our root is quietude."


Lao Tzu



Open Heart
Stop Thinking 

“Stop thinking, and end your problems.”
