August 30th, 2007: Temple of Heaven, Tai Chi, Market

2 Corinthians 4:16 "so we do not lose heart. though our outer nature is wasting away out inner nature is being renewed day by day".

The temple was very open. We went exploring. It was very peaceful and unique once again.
There was a singing lady and man, the hitting of the face and more.

As for the Tai Chi, lets just say my energy did not match the Tai Chi Masters. :) The Market was fun. At the temple there was earth, earth, earth, earth, the Temple, earth, and more Earth, and one extremely clear/bright blue sky. This is where the Emperor came to pray. Everything at the temple was very open and welcoming and natural. This is where most people, still today, go to in order to help focus and center their energy.





A)This just reaffirmed that the emperor had a greater faith than himself. For he went their to pray.

B)People of all cultures have some type of faith-faith in something larger than life.

C) Though we probably have faith in different beings. Our two cultures (The US & China) and my beliefs and the belief of the emperor and his people ALL believe in a higher calling of unknown possibilities.

D)The temple was very elegant. Tai Chi did not do anything for me. Bargaining at the market is alot of fun.
