I come running to you like a moth into a flame, you tell me take it easy but it's easier to say. Wish I didn't need so much of you, I hate to say but I do.

It had taken all his strength, and in the end it left him none to defend himself with . . .

I mourn every time Harry Potter is reduced to a soft sad uwu boy. I didn't even know it was possible to dilute him to that extent aargahgfhfh

Law of Least Effort

Grass doesn't try to grow, it just grows. Flowers don't try to bloom, they bloom. As Yoda says, "Do or Do not. There is no try" or the Vedic principle, "Do less, accomplish more."

Nature is the real teacher when it comes to the law of least effort. Least action and no resistance.

Least effort is expended when your actions are motivated by love because nature is held together by the energy of love. With love as the motivation, no energy is wasted, but rather it is multiplied and accumulate. The surplus of energy you gather and enjoy can be channeled to create anything, including wealth.

To move the energy away from the ego and channel into least effort, here are three steps:

Acceptance - Accept the moment as it should be. Accept people, situations, circumstance, and events as they are - not how you wish they would be. Don't waste energy struggling against the moment. If you are frustrated with a person or situation, those are your feelings and not someone else's fault.

Responsibility - Do not blame anyone or anything for your situation, including yourself. Address every problem as an opportunity in disguise. Reality is an interpretation. Develop the ability to create a creative response to the situation as it is now.

Defenselessness - This one is a biggie for me. Relinquishing the need to convince or persuade others of your point of view. So much energy is wasted fighting or resisting. If you relinquish this need, you will gain access to an enormous amount of energy previously wasted. I feel exhausted when I'm standing rigid, trying to get people on the same soap box as me. To surrender to the moment, be flexible, you. will experience the present moment and drop the terrible burdens of defensiveness, resentment, and hurtfulness.

I am going to be consciously working on this law and making a real effort to choose the path of no resistance.

Probably the final lot of caps for a while. On a side note, I really hated this beige/brown suit, it was too baggy for his svelte form.
