As I step into motion, may I avoid being consumed by the busyness and the noise, and stay connected to the stillness within each moment of the movement, the silence everpresent behind the sound, and be guided by this…

This reminds me of “Holding to the Constant”, a verse attributable to Lao Tzu, a legendary sage of ancient China, is considered the founder of Taoism. It is but one of many collected together into the Tao Te Ching, a collection of Taoist scriptures.
Break into the peace within,
Hold attention in stillness,
And in the world outside
You will ably master the ten thousand things.
All things rise and flourish
Then go back to their roots.
Seeing this return brings true rest,
Where you discover who you really are.
Knowing who you are, you will find the constant.
Those who lack harmony with the constant court danger,
But those who have it gain new vision.
They act with compassion;
within themselves, they can find room for everything.
Having room, they rule themselves and lead others wisely.
Being wise, they live in accordance
with the nature of things.
Emptied of self, and at one with nature,
They become one with the Tao.
The Tao endures forever.
For those who have attained harmony with the Tao
will never lose it,
Even if their bodies die.
Yes, thank you, that is beautiful…
