The Tao teaches us to truly appreciate the irony of life. We are able to do this because we are observant of the world around us, rather than distracted by ourselves. This is a perfect example of Jesus's teaching that obsession with anything of the flesh; money, sex or anything else is self destructive because it takes us farther from our relationship with God, which means we can never be happy because we are always missing what we don't have rather than being grateful for what we do have. This is the eternal Tao of Jesus.
The beauty of the eternal Tao (way) of life is the seeming domination of the feminine essence over the male, which actually leads to true balance. the yin and yang of life, represented by the male and female side which is present in all things reveals to us the inherent power of taking the position below rather than above. By being below, we are able to receive the goodness, which leads us to have the power to spread goodness. We see this most distinctly in the way the female receives the seed of life and then as a result gives birth to a new life. The Tao shows us that true power is always cloaked in gentleness and introspection. Power is wasted by the brash and unthinking. Water dominates all in nature by yielding and conforming, and this very ability allows it to eventually consume all. This principle illuminates what Jesus taught when he said "it has been said, an eye for an eye, but I say unto you if someone should strike you on the cheek, turn and offer the other cheek." Also illustrated by the bibles insistence that the meek will inherit Gods kingdom
The truly wise know that the eternal Tao (way) of Jesus is the greatest gift God has ever given to humankind. It is the light that shines brightest because it illuminates the darkness. Without darkness, we could not appreciate the true beauty of the light. Think of the bible as a wealth of knowledge gathered together from many interpretations of what had been. It became truly illuminated when Jesus came with the new covenant. The new covenant was the key to deciphering the true meaning of the wealth of information. Knowledge is abundant, but the essence of truth is simple. Simple is the light. This is the eternal Tao of Christ.
The battle is joined, the forces of evil are marshaling under the theories put forth by Ayn Rand. As these forces, containing elements of Ayn Rands seductive but deceptively evil agenda, the forces of greed, those that distort the teachings of Jesus and the forces of racism come together and become a formidable unholy alliance, the prophecy of the bible will become clear and unfold. Make no mistake, 2012 is the beginning of a major cataclysmic transformation in the worlds history.
