Not Doing-what does it mean?

[El Espiritu del Foro]

I tend to think that not-doing are actions that tends to dislodge our tonal grip-for-control in order to make us fluent. Moments of abandon that tend to
accumulate.




If natural, aware, action is a river our tonal "normal" actions are a dam. In a not-doing, we open the gates for a moment and let the river flow.




The more we do it, the less we close the dam.




Ideally... the dam should dissapear, leaving us in a permanent state of flow, called by taoists we-wu-wei (action-from-no-action).




Meditation is fundamentally a not-doing... that's what makes it so evasive for so many: they have open or subtle aims.




Instead of opening the dam they tight it up a nodge. lol
