ik 171 for August 2015 b

ik 171
(haiku type series)
being human

the sun rises in
the east and sets in the west,
natural phases

it is the earth that revolves
so too we can resolve to

follow guidelines, yet
like the moon we can be drawn -
natural phases

ego can inflate, deflate,
as it listens or ignores

the sun and the moon
and all that nature offers -
natural phases
 *
Inspired by: Zen demands attention to life’s ordinary details -
where we put things down, how we pick them up.
from: Instant Karma by Barbara Ann Kipfer
8,879 ways to give yourself and others
good fortune right now.
*
Karma is cause and effect. Dharma means cosmic law.
Yoga is enlightenment through movement and Tao is the
practice of acting in harmony with the fundamental essence
of everything you encounter.

Note: my haiku (or other forms) are my interpretations
or of how I might put the inspirational sentence
into practice, for me.  Also, I am going in my own order.
