This episode is also available as a blog post: https://angelsansara.wordpress.com/2023/04/27/the-tao-chapter-67/ The Tao, Chapter 67 The world talks about honoring the Tao,but you can't tell it from their actions.Because it is thought of as great,the world makes light of it.It seems too easy for anyone to use. There are three jewels that I cherish:compassion, moderation, and humility.With compassion, you are enabled to be brave,With moderation, you are enabled to give to others,With humility, you are enabled to become a great leader. Abandoning compassion while seeking to be brave,or abandoning moderation while being benevolent,or abandoning humility while seeking to leadwill only lead to greater trouble. The compassionate warrior will be the winnerand if compassion is your defense you will be secure.Compassion is protection. -- Translated by J. H. McDonald
