Tao Te Ching - Verse 2
from The Ten Thousand Things Hosted by Sam Ellis, Joe Loh and Ali Catramados
Sam and Joe reunite to tackle Verse Two of the Tao Te Ching: Everybody on earth knowing that beauty is beautiful makes ugliness. Everybody knowing that goodness is good makes wickedness. For being and nonbeing arise together; hard and easy complete each other; long and short shape each other; note and voice make the music together; before and after follow each other. That’s why the wise soul does without doing, teaches without talking. The things of this world exist, they are; you can’t refuse them. To bear and not to own; to act and not lay claim; to do the work and let it go: for just letting it go is what makes it stay.
