Today's verse feels particularly personal to me…
because long before I understood what the Tao was teaching about opposites…
I was experiencing it within my own body and within my own life.
My spiritual awakening began with a powerful activation of life-force energy…
an experience that opened me to an energetic world I hadn't understood before.
And what followed wasn't simply peace and light.
It was a dismantling.
So many of the beliefs I had unconsciously built my life around…
right and wrong…
light and dark…
strength and softness…
masculine and feminine…
attachment and freedom…
began to break apart.
And for a while…
holding these opposites was incredibly destabilising.
I thought one side had to be right…
and the other wrong.
One had to stay…
and the other had to go.
But over time…
I began to understand something.
Perhaps awakening isn't about choosing the light over the darkness…
or the spiritual over the human.
Perhaps it is about becoming spacious enough to hold both…
without allowing either to pull us away from our centre.
And this is where Verse 28 of the Tao Te Ching takes us today.
Into the paradox of opposites…
and the extraordinary wholeness that becomes possible when we stop fighting half of ourselves.
Take a breath…
and let's step through Door Twenty-Eight.
