: you write:
: "The princess only acted appropriately
: when
: forced to do so. Or for some personal
: egoistic gain. "
:
: I dont think that she was forced to do so.
: ...that the reason is any egoistic gain...
: her being angry was some sort of a
: "holy one"
:
: her action is expression of being in accord
: with the way of the Tao - to use your
: words...
:
: The prince is acting in his egoistic way - -
: the deeper reason why he got changed to a
: frog ... and got healed by the action of the
: princess... putting clear that the prince's
: egoistic wishes does not fit..
:
:
: you write:
: "One cannot force a swing. One must go
: with it freely. One must let go of the
: particulars to embrace the whole. "
:
: Here you are very near to my thinking about
: the way of practicing qigong.
: it is not to force the swing...
: there is a great phenomenon:
: using our concentration.. our mind...
: thinking alternating of feet - earth ... and
: head - heaven ...
: thinking of the described flow of qi along
: the meridians... body begins to relax and we
: are starting in swinging with the whole...
:
ren ying,
Swing away my friend.
About the Princess. She was forced to do the right thing by her father.
The frog, was upfront and made an offer fair to both parties. He got what he wanted, and she got what she wanted.
The princess on the other-hand didn't want to pay the piper. She wanted something for nothing.
The conditioned sense of self some call the ego is a spoiled brat.
