Master Oogway: "Your mind is like this water my friend. When it is agitated it becomes difficult to see.....but if you allow it to settle, then the answer becomes clear."
The best behaviour is similar to that of water, because water benefits all creatures and yet remains unselfish. It occupies the lowest position by itself and for that very reason is credible and unspoiled. The best human behaviour is undemanding to the outside world and desirelessly inside; devoted in action and true in speech; ordering in leading and powerful in action; calm in doing. And only when this behavior strives for nothing, is it perfect. - Tao Te Ching, 8
you don' t know me like that, fukd to you, my mind is not full of water. more to it then muddying the waters. I don't know anything, all I do know is the world isn't a spinning ball. certain
I love this. I used to stress over my skin and now I do the work to clear it up (wash 2x a day, eat healthy food, drink water, got hormones checked and balanced) and now it's time to step back and not worry about it. Easier said than done but I'm writing this quote on my mirror!
I'm a Taoist and it's been one of the best decisions I've made. This philosophical system is very unique and it's given me a very affinity and love for Chinese philosophy and historical figures

@NotATeenStereotype Best of both worlds aye, yeah thats usually a safe win. I really like the 'say the perfect thing at the most right time' as possible. You can see the words pierce through them and provide an angelic uplift of spirits sometimes but things like quotes and philosophy don't register at all with some people.

The "doing something instead of waiting" part is pretty much the reason why most of our lovelives are not perfect. Time and time again we try to fix things on the spot instead of just letting the situation resolve itself.
At the moment I'm having a teaching from life about letting go. All the time. Everywhere. Thank you for this profound collection of thoughts about it. It helps.
This is so good! I’m teaching myself that it’s ok to let go! It’s hard and fear tries to hold me back but I’m on a mission to become consciously aware!
This is great information, I find that when dealing with toxic people, not interacting is the best approach. Toxic people generally are sick inside and lash out at others for their problems. I find that ignoring them then causes them to target someone else, or complain to higher ups, and they unravel their own fabric if you maintain your posture and dont partake in their games
This talk put seemingly disparate concepts together and in right perspective for me! ... Personal Fear ... Not Trusting People ... Feeling The Need To Control ... Seeing the interconnectedness of these has brought Me into focus for MySelf... Thank You Einzelganger! Every video I’ve watched of yours has been deeply impacting! 🙏😊💗
This is a key concept, especially in relationships. If someone wants out, oblige them. Your life, development, and goals continue with them or without them. I let go of someone I loved. C'est la vie!
Gerhard Symons if it only were that easy. I have to let go of someone I love and who also loves me, but the distance and family situation doesn’t allow us to be together. Now I know that if it were meant to be, the universe would have made it possible and since it doesn’t, it’s not supposed to be. But even though I know that, it’s so hard to accept and let go of her, since I still have feelings for her. Detaching myself is the hardest thing there is.
@@sT3fFO27 Each situation is unique. I wish I could say that the passage of time helps. Four years on, and not a single day has passed without me thinking of her. Maybe it will be like that until I die. Who knows? Still, you get on with life.

It's going to hurt, alot. For a period of time, and then I'll be OK, with the grace of God.
The more I hear and listen about this philosophy, the more intriguing it becomes and simultaneously mysterious to grasp, it's beautiful how something can be so simple but so subtle at the same time !

funny thing is I am subscribed to 4 or 5 channels you also subscribed to and you always have something witty to say ... keep it up bro and a happy productive prosperous year .
I found your videos at pivotal moment in my life. I learned Tao during my first year in collage, and nearly 30 years later the philosophy is brining me peace in the most turbulent time in my life.
The video was really great...! The message that you wanted to convey was so clear, coherent and organized. It's the kind which can be and in fact should be watched every morning for maximum impact.
I watched this video with my full cognitive awareness and it's not that long either. Yet, I know that I must re-watch it multiple times because this video contains so much profound & elemental knowledge. That even if I experience deep resonance while watching, to grasp the extend of information contained, was not possible to me. Thank you, because that experience is something I sincere uphold. Be well & Fortune favor you!
Your videos are helping me a lot on daily basis although i practice these techniques for a long time unknowhngly. Your vids male relax during these days of family problems. Thanks a lot from bottem of my heart.
One of my favorite youtube places lately. I learn something new and I am also being reminded about some wise things, that for some reason I forget to practice every day. Thank you and keep up with the good work in 2020.
Right on! Love your channel and the positivity you put out into the universe. Gonna make 2020 the year I'm completely woke , with your help I feel like failure isn't even on my radar. Thanks brother, have a great and prosperous new year!!
The mistake is letting go. Let be and never let go. Most if not all failures are due to people letting go. Insistence and persistence are the keys to success, from friendship to marriage to growing old. Till death I don't part. Never go with the flow. Create one. May the love and the peace of Jesus be with us.
@@parasamesar1925 This video was made by people who don't understand Chinese. Take the COVID-19 pandemic as an example, did the world let go and laid flat? Yes. Did China let go? No. That is why China has less than 5,000 deaths and is still persistently insisting on zero tolerance. USA has over a million deaths, with one quarter of the population of China. See the difference and why? Lao Tzu said the highest virtue is like water. Have you ever seen water let go and go with the flow of others? No. Water is always focused, insistent, persistent, and create its own flow. That's the virtue of water. Letting be is not letting go. Letting be is allowing all concerns to survive without having to surrender, fail, or be defeated. Have you seen water not letting be? Never. With marriages, if one would let be and not let go, the marriage and the love will survive. Even when the marriage must be broken up, the love would still survive, and there should not be any remorse, guilt, or pain for as long as there is love. May the love and the peace of Jesus be with us.
@@jwu1950 I don't exactly understand the difference between letting be and letting go. They sound quite similar and yet quite different at the same time. Btw out of context question, are you from China?
Balance and moderation in all things. Prepare the best you can, work as hard as you can, and then let go... the outcomes are, in the end, out of our hands. Only the preparation is within our control.
Wow... I can't describe how good what you said in this video made me feel. This is so different from personal growth gourous who tell you to take action, to treat yourself with imperatives to reach goals that you invented for yourself... You are saying that no great effort is needed to be fulfilled and live a pleasant life, and this is so releaving. Thank you very much !
Thanks for the video. It reminds me of Alan Watts. He explained this concept very eloquently. Basically this practice of letting go in Taoism is meant to teach the individual to learn the value of spontaneity. By allowing things to flow naturally. The universe gives birth to precious moments of unfiltered truth. Raw spontaneous natural manifestation.
Angel this is Wonderful 🙏😎☯️.. yes .. The Flow . thank U .. We’re so Blessed .. loveUr wisdom passion .. don’t know where I heard it .. inaction is part of action
Happy new year! This video is great and I truly agree with the Taoist way of Letting Go. To me, letting go means to Surrender to the Universe. It means to let go of force and just Trust. It means to let go of control, manipulation, neediness and clinginess. So instead of struggling my way upstream, I let go and allow for the effortless way downstream to lead me. This is the Highest Path. On here, what is meant for me will come to me effortlessly and what is meant for me will always be of better quality than what is not meant for me. This way, things fall into place, opportunities present themselves, tension dissolves, the heart opens up, love flows and synchronicities start to happen and guide me through this path. I believe this is what it means to be in flow. It is to be aligned with the Universe.
I read once that lack of doing or say anything can appear lazy or down to weakness...but instead this is down to the individual s strength of character rather than the weakness
I wish to thank you for all of your videos. Thanks to you,I have embraced stoicism and it is true...Stoicism really helps in everyday life. I wish you a very happy new year and best wishes!
I want to say thank you for this video. For a long while I’ve had crazy anxiety due to trying to control, I’ve been trying to find the answer and this was it. Letting go, to be super in flow with life. The answer has been so simple all along. Thank you for providing information of helping me remember my true being. Thank you.
Absolutely no turning back as my experience, lying for the whole relation, a long forgiving in relationship fiinally i decided to end last year the abuse one let them learn ro realized just respect what desreved to them after all
Thank you. The part about others talking behind your back is happening in my life as we speak. I keep focus on completing the overall objective and not speaking badly of anyone.
Happy New Year! Thank you for this video. Your words of wisdom helped me a lot when I discovered you in 2019. I wish you deeper wisdom and strength to continue to help others and joy in what you do.
"wu wei" translates directly to "not do," so I think it's better to refer to it as "wei wu wei," or "do not do" -- because this gets more to the heart of Lao Tzu's mysterious yet profound langauge. The full phrase appears three times in the original Tao Te Ching, and Ursula Le Guin speaks to its importance in a footnote of her English rendition of the book: "Over and over Lao Tzu says wei wu wei: Do not do. Doing not-doing. To act without acting. Action by inaction. You do nothing yet it gets done... It’s not a statement susceptible to logical interpretation, or even to a syntactical translation into English; but it’s a concept that transforms thought radically, that changes minds. The whole book is both an explanation and a demonstration of it."
"Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner." - Neil McCauley
Sometimes its not the fear that the world will fall apart without you that makes you a control freak, but fear that your world will forget you without you there that holds our unwilling lust for permanence.
Master Oogway: "Your mind is like this water my friend. When it is agitated it becomes difficult to see.....but if you allow it to settle, then the answer becomes clear."
The best behaviour is similar to that of water,

It occupies the lowest position by itself

Well played, well played...👍🙏
Yes. Some of the best advice I have received was from a retired minister:
“Don’t just do something, stand there!”
This has been proved to work. Three teenagers standing on a dock. A man is drowning several feet away. The man stops moving and one of the teenagers says "I think he's dead" He did die at about that time.
How does just standing there help with anything? I'm failing to understand.
Man, If you don’t consider “stand” to be said figuratively, this almost goes over your head....feels like one of those “when you see it” memes
There’s too much confusion about my comment so I’ll just stand here and let you guys figure it out.
My favorite minister often said "do the best you can with what you're got" I do this daily. It helps greatly.

You are really making world a richer place with these excellent videos. A self realization at its prime on your side. :)
Balance and moderation in all things. Prepare the best you can, work as hard as you can, and then let go... the outcomes are, in the end, out of our hands. Only the preparation is within our control.
Fantastic! On vacation and struggling badly. Greatly needed this reminder. THANK YOU
Wow... I can't describe how good what you said in this video made me feel. This is so different from personal growth gourous who tell you to take action, to treat yourself with imperatives to reach goals that you invented for yourself... You are saying that no great effort is needed to be fulfilled and live a pleasant life, and this is so releaving. Thank you very much !
Thanks for the video. It reminds me of Alan Watts. He explained this concept very eloquently. Basically this practice of letting go in Taoism is meant to teach the individual to learn the value of spontaneity. By allowing things to flow naturally. The universe gives birth to precious moments of unfiltered truth. Raw spontaneous natural manifestation.
Angel this is Wonderful 🙏😎☯️.. yes .. The Flow . thank U .. We’re so Blessed .. loveUr wisdom passion .. don’t know where I heard it .. inaction is part of action
Happy new year! This video is great and I truly agree with the Taoist way of Letting Go. To me, letting go means to Surrender to the Universe. It means to let go of force and just Trust. It means to let go of control, manipulation, neediness and clinginess. So instead of struggling my way upstream, I let go and allow for the effortless way downstream to lead me. This is the Highest Path. On here, what is meant for me will come to me effortlessly and what is meant for me will always be of better quality than what is not meant for me. This way, things fall into place, opportunities present themselves, tension dissolves, the heart opens up, love flows and synchronicities start to happen and guide me through this path. I believe this is what it means to be in flow. It is to be aligned with the Universe.
Thank you, Lady Donna! Best wishes to you!
I read once that lack of doing or say anything can appear lazy or down to weakness...but instead this is down to the individual s strength of character rather than the weakness
This is right on time at this time for me 😊
Thanks for the video! This is the best gift for my heart and mind.
Thank you, Helen! Best wishes to you!
I wish to thank you for all of your videos. Thanks to you,I have embraced stoicism and it is true...Stoicism really helps in everyday life. I wish you a very happy new year and best wishes!
Thanks a lot, Magnus! Best wishes to you as well!
I want to say thank you for this video. For a long while I’ve had crazy anxiety due to trying to control, I’ve been trying to find the answer and this was it. Letting go, to be super in flow with life. The answer has been so simple all along. Thank you for providing information of helping me remember my true being. Thank you.
Caffeine caused me crazy anxiety - I gave it up and my anxiety disappeared.
This are brilliant, very helpful teachings. Thanks.
Thank you. I'm just the messenger, though. You might want to check the sources (Tao Te Ching, Zhuangzi) for more ;)
Really well done! Thank you for making things more understandable! This really helped me out today!

Thank you. The part about others talking behind your back is happening in my life as we speak. I keep focus on completing the overall objective and not speaking badly of anyone.

Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.
The depressed need to rediscover love
Depression is merely anger turned inwards.
@@keiranleonard1301
the depressed need TO BE more than anything else.
@@nt6351 yah, when you suppress your anger too much, even anger gets angry at you. Your own self despises you for being so unfair to yourself.
Depression is resistance.
It's lack of acceptance....
Internet is an amazing place to learn solutions of your problems
Happy New Year! Thank you for this video. Your words of wisdom helped me a lot when I discovered you in 2019. I wish you deeper wisdom and strength to continue to help others and joy in what you do.
Happy new year and thank you for your search of wisdom and revelation to us using your videos. Helps me a lot brother...keep it going this 2020 🔥
This is sage advice & thanks for sharing the wisdom👈😎🖖
Honestly your vidoes are incredible! Thank you for taking the time to make these! 🙏🏼
"wu wei" translates directly to "not do," so I think it's better to refer to it as "wei wu wei," or "do not do" -- because this gets more to the heart of Lao Tzu's mysterious yet profound langauge. The full phrase appears three times in the original Tao Te Ching, and Ursula Le Guin speaks to its importance in a footnote of her English rendition of the book: "Over and over Lao Tzu says wei wu wei: Do not do. Doing not-doing. To act without acting. Action by inaction. You do nothing yet it gets done... It’s not a statement susceptible to logical interpretation, or even to a syntactical translation into English; but it’s a concept that transforms thought radically, that changes minds. The whole book is both an explanation and a demonstration of it."
"Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner." - Neil McCauley
I listen to Let it Be by The Beatles. It actually helps.
This was really good, thanks Einzelganger!
This is really helpful. I found it 30mins after a break up and going to try practice it. Thank you so much.
Love light healing across the miles we live 🌍
If this type of video was on the trending page I think society would be a lot better.
Thank you Leon..! It has gotten quite some views so far 👍
Thx man for all your video's.... they help me cope so much. Keep up the good work bro ✌️
This channel is one of the best
It’s also about cutting losses and regrouping to do better and be better. So self control, changing and adapting.
Beautiful photography! ❤️ Thank you!
Sometimes its not the fear that the world will fall apart without you that makes you a control freak, but fear that your world will forget you without you there that holds our unwilling lust for permanence.
Let it go so you can GROW!!

This is very similar to the wisdom contained in the Serenity Prayer
