Episode 185 - The Tao & The Wisdom of the Tao w/ Gregory Ripley

In this episode I welcome author of the recent book, 'The Hundred Remedies of the Tao: Spiritual Wisdom for Interesting Times'...Gregory Ripley. Greg and I discuss this incredible release which examines the little-known 6th-century Taoist text called the Bai Yao Lu (Statutes of the Hundred Remedies). Gregory explains how the text was created as a practical guide to what enlightened behavior looks like—with each of the 100 spiritual remedies just as relevant today as they were 1500 years ago. We also talk about Greg's process of translating this text for English readers from the original language, and why he added commentary to each section.. As we continue through this amazing discussion, we take a deep dive into the concept and meaning of the Tao..
