TANMOY - Stanza 25

The I Ching's hexagrams,1
sixty-four pattern map of flow formation of existence.
(The Creative), (The Receptive),
symbols of the active and passive,
the yang and the yin, the interplay of opposites.


Analyzing the patterns.
(qián), (kūn), (zhūn), (méng).
The Creative, The Receptive.
Difficulty at the Beginning, Youthful Folly.


"The universe begins to look more like a great thought than a great machine."2

རྫོགས་ཆེན།
"The ground of being," "the natural state,"
"primordial purity," "spontaneous presence."
ཀ་དག་, ལྷུན་གྲུབ་


DEEP seek the patter within the patterns,
the hugging code within the code.

Is this a guide to great recorsi so saw,
or a reflection know knot braide,
a mud pit of the ever-shifting present tense?


"Dig another reality tunnel?"
"Or the keys to unlock gates fold?"
"Who throws the dice?"
