Zhou Xuanjing
The Mtstic of Peace
" I am peace. When my mind is clear, the way is clear."
✨️meditation: Enter the heart, and ask to experience stillness. Repeat the mantra "I am peace."
Zhou Xuanjing embodies the unwavering tranquility that exists deep beneath the turbulence of our daily thoughts. Zhou Xuanjing was a 12th century Taoist mystic and poet. The night before her son's birth, she had a dream that she was immersed in a red mist. This is a very auspicious sign in Chinese culture.
The title given to her as a master was Free Human of Mystic Peace. The emphasis in her poetry was the power inherent in stillness."Tge secret of the receptive," she writes, "must be sought in stillness." The way, or Taoism, is a spiritual practice of clearing the mindso that when we take action, it isn't from the ego; it's from the source of life itself.
"The pedestal of awareness is steady as a boulder." Zhou taught that meditation allows us to disengage from the surface drama the ego can invite us into. She often refers to the moon in her poetry because this was the symbol of the eternal sky, or the freedom we can reach if we stop looking at the light and shadows the moon casts and see the moon itself.
