Everything is in the circle

Recommended Posts

Whirling dervishes and their communion with God, The Divine; Muslims pilgrims circumnavigating the Kaaba at al-Haram Sharif mosque in the holy city of Mecca; a total solar eclipse at the start of this scene of the film Baraka (1992); and the Taoist Bagua practitioner walking the circle.

 

From the circle you return to the circle after your last life cycle (a single sperm (yang) entering the ova (yin) and to the circle (samsara, yin and yang eternal play) you'll return to continue the cycle once again.

 

The sage understands this and uses the circle to eventually reach stillness and leave the circle.

 

Heaven Holding Palm and Point to heaven and Stab the Earth Palms (Hun/Liver and Shen/Heart)

The swirling Dervish also performs a Heaven Holding Palm-like movement

 

Circle practice: A giant acupuncture needle that pierces the circle.

 

Ah! I forgot about our brothers, trees, they are also enormous acupuncture needles. Very helpful and gentle giants.

I am a holder of the concept of cycles.  However, I do not hold to the concept of the cycles every being broken.

 

Cycles and reversion.
