Going with the Flow by Dr. Andre Muhammad
If we were all in accord with the Tao, there would be no need for conflict, wars, and famine. The 32nd verse of the Tao Te Ching causes one to examine the degree to which the physical existence is in harmony with that of the Tao (the Way). This verse further invites the individual to ride with the flow of the universe and view it as an ally as opposed to an enemy. It is obvious that we encounter conflict when we fail to allow ourselves to come in harmony with our Source.
On some occasions, flowing with the Source might have one to pay close attention to the winds of change that may be blowing directly in one's life. These winds of change may manifest as any change that directs or causes one to make a switch from that which is routine or ordinary. As a result, following the flow of energy may involve the individual in making a change and following a direct calling that has been destined. Can people miss their calling? The answer to this question must be emphatically yes, as people not in tune with the Source may not necessarily be in a position to benefit from the flow of the Tao.
Thus, it is important that we embrace the flow of the Tao. More specifically, it is important that people see the importance of sometimes surrendering their own independent wills to the great will of the universe. In order to do this, the individual may need to become an empty vessel that allows him/herself to become full with the energy of the Tao.
Peace and blessings!
