We live in a hologram - meaning each part contains within it the information for the whole - but how can we really know unless we step out of it? This is the nature of the holographic mind.

The Dissolving Methods of Lao Tzu's Water Meditation Tradition
February 2, 7 p.m.
With Don Myers
The Tao Te Ching says, "Nothing in this world is as soft and yielding as water. Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible, nothing can surpass it." In Outer Dissolving, the mind's intent is used to release tension and pain from your physical and etheric bodies. Deeper Inner Dissolving can free blockages in the higher energy bodies, and results in what the Taoists call "Relaxing Into Your 'Being.'"
