The Tao of the Ferris Wheel

  • 2016

The book of the I Ching reminds us of this Arcane, of a Yang nature and whose representative element is Wood.

We talk about Fortuna and think of good luck, but the word Fortuna comes from the Latin “fortune” and this one from fors / forte and means: chance, luck, unexpected fact . And that is really what this letter tells us. Unexpected events that happen without stopping, can be pleasant or unpleasant. Situations that happen by "chance" and that leads us to live a good or bad experience.

The Wheel of Fortune spins and spins and may take us to "a bad place, at the least opportune moment" or quite the opposite.

It happens constantly in our lives and is related to the Wheel of the many lives that is part of Samsara. The Karma that leads us to the Dharma; the Dharma that cleanses us Karma.

Sortes (luck) were dice with which the ancient Romans played; We all know the dice. Does God play dice? We are on the Wheel, we will roll the dice to get the beloved Dharma.

To lead our own life, to take the helm of our existence, for that we have come to the plane of Samsara.

But where boss sends no sailor, and if you allow a policeman to enter the boat you are driving, there may be a motive and he will leave badly stopped.

And who is that poliz n? Do you know it?

Doubt, fear, guilt has many names and leads us to the bad seas.

Life is a reflection of other lives, and the Wheel of Fortune is a rudder that takes those lives to their own Essence, but as long as some poliz n will never arrive port, sailor.

Life itself is a Dharma, let it guide you, because in your life there is the wisdom of other lives. Karma is not a punishment, unless you do not expel the poliz n. Karma takes you to Dharma, but to get to Dharma you must live Karma.


Grab your rudder, sailor, go to your soul and guide you and you will finish your route through the seas of Samsara .
