“If we want to see the big picture, we have to raise our consciousness levels.” – Vishrant
Most people live trapped in their minds.
Stuck in thought.
Resisting life.
Trying to fix, solve, achieve.
But awakening doesn’t come through trying to get something.
It comes through surrender.
Through softness.
Through yin.

Why Taoism Points the Way Home
“I loved the idea of being that small.”
Taoism doesn’t ask you to become more.
It invites you to become less.
To stop striving.
To drop the story.
To dissolve.
In Taoism, strength is softness.
Power is presence.
Wisdom is emptiness.
This was Vishrant’s path for over a decade.
The Tao Te Ching was his bible.
And its teachings still echo through his silence.
Yin: The Forgotten Doorway to Enlightenment
“In yin, we find beingness. In yin, we find heart.”
Modern life is yang.
Loud. Forceful. Outward.
But awakening is found in yin.
The inward.
The surrendered.
The still.
To become yin is to drop resistance.
And that’s not easy because resistance is built into the human psyche.
It’s how we survive.
But surrender isn’t weakness.
It’s the gateway to truth.
The path is simple, but not easy: Acceptance of life as it is, and letting go.
True Wisdom Is Knowing Yourself
“Knowing others is intelligence. Knowing yourself is true wisdom.”
But what does it mean to “know yourself”?
Not the mind.
Not the personality.
Not the memory of who you’ve been.
To truly know yourself is to recognise what remains when all thoughts are gone.
Beingness.
Silence.
Awareness without a story.
The more you see through the mind, the less you suffer in it.
Because you stop being fooled by it.
Seeing Through the Mind, Seeing the Big Picture
“As consciousness rises, you see the consequences of everything you say and do.”
In lower consciousness, you miss things.
You react.
You blame yourself, others and the world.
You resist.
In higher consciousness, you see a much bigger picture.
You don’t react.
You accept life as it is.
You respond with awareness.
As your consciousness levels grow, you begin to see how you create your own prison. And how to step out of it.
The doorway to enlightenment and heart opens in higher consciousness.
Be Like Water: The Art of Staying in Flow
“The highest good is like water.”
To live like water is to move without resistance.
To be fluid.
Adaptable.
Unstuck.
It’s not passive, it requires mind mastery.
It’s like kung fu.
It’s beauty.
And when you live in flow, life becomes a dance.
A game.
A grace.
But when you resist life, you get stuck.
You become rigid. And life becomes hard.
What Stops Flow?
“The moment we resist life, we move out of flow.”
Resistance says no.
Flow says yes.
And most people spend their whole lives saying no.
To pain. To change. To now.
But flow isn’t about what happens.
It’s about how you meet it.
You don’t have to become a victim of life.
Even when bad things happen, you can choose to remain open.
To stay in yes. To stay in flow. To stay yin.
Stop Thinking, End Your Problems
“If you’re not thinking, there is no problem.”
It sounds radical, but it’s true.
The mind is programmed to search for problems.
To analyse.
To solve.
To fix.
And so, it never rests.
But truth is not a problem to be solved.
It’s a presence to be lived.
And when the mind is still, peace is all that remains.
An Invitation to Embrace the Tao in Your Life
“Being in flow is very beautiful. Life becomes a game.“
You don’t have to keep resisting.
You don’t have to keep thinking.
You don’t have to keep striving.
You can return to softness.
You can rest in yin.
You can live in flow.
This is not a philosophy.
It’s practice.
You can sit with Vishrant in weekly Satsang, and begin to taste the space that Tao points to, the stillness beneath all doing.
Let go. Say yes. And be like water.
