Tao te Ching Chapter Five

from Two Guys talking at the Watercooler Hosted by Center of the Universe (cotu)

Thomas Brill and Brian Parks chatting again. This week we talked about chapter 5 of the Tao te Ching. Heaven and Earth are not humane; They regard the the thousand things as straw dogs. The Sage is not humane; He regards the common people as straw dogs. The space between Heaven and Earth—is it not like a bellow? It is empty and yet not depleted; Move it and more [always] comes out. Much learning means frequent exhaustions. That's not so good as holding on to the mean. Here is a link to the audio file for chapter 5 if you are not using iTunes. https://s3.amazonaws.com/tao4two/TtCCh5.mp3
