Comte de Sats Germain on Nostr: Dao de Jing / Tao te Ching 35/81 ...
Dao de Jing / Tao te Ching
35/81
But which is more virtuous, Laozi?
I think Laozi prefers the inaction of the sage. But are the distractions an accident?
He has already condemned travel as pointless.
What if its the opposite?
What if travel, food, and all the trappings of the NPC are really the point of it all?
Eternity is ahead of us
And behind
And within
But unseen
Which is more illusory?
The pervasive
Or the temporal?
