LIFE is a Dance OF Opposites

This poem comes from Danny Arguetty's book Nourishing the Teacher.
​
To build up, dismantle first.
To expand, contract first.
To attain clarity, allow confusion.
To become civilized, first live in the wild.

The balance of all things is in their opposites;
The truth points in both directions.
Thus the clenched fist holds weakness within,
And the open hand offers the hidden power of stars..."
