Comte de Sats Germain on Nostr: Dao de Jing / Tao te Ching 4/81 ...
Dao de Jing / Tao te Ching
4/81
This is where it starts to appear that the Dao is the Spirit in Christianity. Translator pointed out that "ancestor" as written in Chinese can also mean emporer or God. So, the Dao is pervasive, the smallest thing, and the first cause.
It reminds me of the spirit whispering in the wind in the mountains - there was a verse somewhere in the Bible describing that.
Compare with the Greek word, 'zoe,' found in John 14:6 (life)
The use of "zoe" instead of "bio" should catch your attention here. This means the cause of life, not the process. Its the thing at the root - without it, the fantastic machine that is a cell doesn't move and the fantastic machine that is a brain carries no Self.
Here's the breakdown of that verse in the original Greek:
