Spirit shares His understandin of I Ching wisdom. Hexagram 20 – Observing., expresses the life situaton of today’s lesson. Wind is over Earth; yang over yin. The 2nd and 5th lines are both centered and balanced, with yin on 2nd and yang on 5th, the leadership position.
“To observe is to witness, and there is no such possibility
as being a non-participating witness. Whatever we witness, we are a part of. We absorb the reality of whatever situation we are witness to. We open to it or we close up to it. We back away from or move forward, if only in our mind. We respond, or we react.”
“What if …”
“There are no what ifs that could excuse you from
accepting responsibility.”
“How could I be responsible if I’m just a witness?”
“You are responsible for your response.”
“Even if I don’t recognize the significance of
what I witness until later?”
“We live in the moment.”
“The message?”
“The moment lasts forever.”
