I am a proud Monkey, but this is what "repulse the monkey" means in T'ai Ch'i!
The Ego is a Monkey catapulting through the Jungle
Totally fascinated by the realm of the senses,
it swings from one desire to the next,
one conflict to the next,
one self-centered idea to the next.
If you threaten it, it actually fears for its life.
Let this monkey go. Let the senses go. Let desires go.
Let conflicts go. Let ideas
go. Let the fiction of life and death go.
Just remain in the center, watching.
And then forget that you are there.
