Living Without Force
Posted by Ken Lauher
Thinking in alignment with the Tao applies to any conflict you may experience. When you resort to force, then disputes with your spouse, your children, your business partners, and even your neighbors will continue to intensify. That's because the Great Way of Tao is that of cooperation, not competition. The all-creating Source is always providing, asking nothing in return, and coming from a place of sharing its inherent love. It knows that all are part of the 10,000 things, and they must cooperate with each other because they share the same origin. So whenever you're in a mode that propels you in the direction of using force, you've lost sight of your connection to the Tao.
Moreover, any collection of people (such as communities or countries) who resort to weapons to get their points across are unattuned to the Way. They'll leave the earth and the hearts of the people uninhabitable, except to "briars and thorns." Your choice concerning your commitment to practicing the Tao includes refusing to participate in any manner, be it mental or physical, in anything that violates your understanding of the advice offered in this powerful passage of the Tao Te Ching.
Perhaps the easiest lesson presented here is the reminder to eschew the behaviors of boastfulness and pomposity for anything achieved by force. Remember that whatever is accomplished in such a way creates a counterforce that will ultimately result in your victory turning to a defeat.
If you somehow feel that you had no other choice than to use violence to protect yourself and those you love, immediately retreat to a position that doesn't allow for bragging of love where hatred previously resided, and do all that you can to make amends for any damage that resulted from your use of force. This is the Way. It has also been called we-wei, or "not forcing," which means to take the line of least resistance in all of one's actions, and by doing so, create more strength.- Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life by Dr. Wayne Dyer
