Walk in the Spirit

これは、腑に落ちた、

Martial artist Bruce Lee in a pensive moment.
思索にふけるブルース・リー、

"You must be shapeless, formless, like water."
それは 形もなく、形式もない、
まさに、水のごとくなるのだ、

Amar's Wisdom - Adapt
Jan25 2014 by Amar　（H.Makow）

I think we concentrate too much on perfecting this Earth and perfecting the economic system in particular.  Your recent articles on gold and then bitcoins are interesting for sure.  However they miss one big point.  There is no perfect economic system on Earth.  That is why Earth is meant to be a temporary place.  If anything, the perfect system is the system that provides me food and shelter.  As long as I do not think too much and just adapt, the perfect system is always there.

I am coming to realize that I was just born to these particular parents in this particular country in this particular system of rules and regulations and control for sure.  I was lost for a long time trying to figure out the perfect system for society.  I am now thinking that maybe it is best to accept what is in front of us and adapt.  As Bruce Lee said,

"You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend."

Why worry about create perfect systems on this temporary Earth.  Why not contemplate and understand that life is just a vacation, soon enough it will end.  As in a vacation, we must not get attached to fun that we are hopefully having, we must not get attached to this Earth. 

何かを作るのではなく、変えるのでもなく、
ただ、受け入れる、

この世は一時的、テンポラリーの世界、

株式がドーの、ゴールドがドーの、

そんなにあくせくしてドーするのか、

休暇を楽しむごとく、
今、与えられている状況、ものを楽しめばいい、

水を見よ、

形がない、

カップに注げば、カップの形に、
ボトルに注げば、ボトルの形に、
ティーポットに注げば、ティーポットの形になる、

水は滴下するが、瞬時に、四方にはじける、

水になれ、友よ、

自分にドーしようもない状況が出てきたら、
逆に、それは、明確なメッセージなのだろう、

拒絶ではなく、受け入れを、
相手や状況を変えるのではなく、自分を変えることを、

まさに、水になれの世界、　

来るボールに、全身を合わせるイチロー、
