JIMI TAO -A BEAUTY WAY

JiMi Tao 10 Limbs of the Tree
© 06-2017

The Tree

Dharma literally means the Tree. What is the tree of life but that which continually moves through the cycles of living and dying, birth and rebirth. Honoring the cycles of Being in Presence.

Bodhisattva means the being who brings insight into the ways of peace for all beings.

JiMi Tao literally means a Way of Beauty or Beauty Way.

And so, I offer to you this,

The tree of life, Willow resides near the waters of life thats/he may provide shelter, clarity, insight and peace to all those whom s/he is here to teach and care for.

S/he the willow does not go outside her station to look to provide shelter, but grants shelter to those whom find Kin with her nature. For those whom have taken the Great Vow to be in peace and provide access and eternal insight to those whom choose peace as a way of life. Shelter is given to those who have given up the need to be violent.

10 BRANCHES OF THE TREE

When we begin our journey into the outside world, our branches are youthful and tender and 'yet to become' a limb. Yet the Willow does look to having great limbs which will identify he/r strength and capacity to shelter, guide, protect and give space for the co-creation oflife in peace. Offering continually this message of eternal faith in the great Loved Ones who have taught us, guided us and come before us. The Enlightened and Awakened Ones who continually guide our path in Great Joy. So, it is we are here to share our path of peaceful ease which has been before us for all eternity and yet seldom known or seen. We must cause hearts to hear the sound of the river wave. Thus, weakening the strong statue of 'I KNOW' and exchanging the "I Know Suffering for I KNOW PEACE." And in this way today we enter into the world of tender reed and imagine the Limbs of Heath and Well Being that we honor as vowed members of "Great Line of Loving."

WHAT ARE THE TEN (10) BRANCHES OF THE TREE?

There is no branch or limb that is more important or valuable than the other, yet for purposes of organization and easy reference I give these to you by number.

The Limb of Wisdom
The Limb of Ascetics
The Limb of Emptiness
The Limb of Sharing Knowledge
The Limb ofTeaching Knowledge
The Limb of Universal Secrets
The Limb of Caution
The Limb of Eternal Memory
The Limb of Clairvoyance
The Limb of Listening

Of these limbs, there are specific ones that are for teachers only. The two that are not necessarily for teachers are:

The Limb of Caution and The Limb of Listening. These are befriending Limbs which are used as attributes for general conversation and personal considerations in self development.

My Dearest Community,

Sending to you some happiness. I hope that your time off is very joyful and that you are experiencing the beauty of this warm time of splendor.

I thank all of you for your clarity in your processes of consideration of the limbs. I am in deep consideration of how we will move forward here.

We are nearing the end of our "Passionate Passageways of Grace" Contemplation.
Wonderful. Look at how long you can stay steady, nice work.
I would like you to take some time and read through your work.

Consider the initial intention of the contemplation, Opportunities to awaken in awareness to Being Pleasant in our enlightened lives.
It would be of great value for you to find places, just a few where you found yourself embodied in this intention. Maybe you will want to write your summary in your contemplation book. We began this contemplation nearly a year ago.

When you worry about whether you can consistently embrace peaceful ease and wellness of mind, remember, you have developed a very strong muscle and synapse to do so. Very Good.

The new contemplation will begin within the next month.
In the mean time you may want to use your contemplation as a day by day, using the page as a reading.

Again blessings as you continue your quiet time off.
Inloves connection ingenerosity,

The Tree – Limbs
