Daily Tao - Chapter 5
1 comment October 23rd, 2005
Today's Daily Tao is:
Nature
Nature is not kind;
It treats all things impartially.
The Sage is not kind,
And treats all people impartially.
Nature is like a bellows,
Empty, yet never ceasing its supply.
The more it moves, the more it yields;
So the sage draws upon experience
And cannot be exhausted.
I think this is saying that the Sage is one who treats people without favouritism. He is as I aspire to be, seeking the balance in all things. It is also experience that continues to drive the Sage, providing incentive and inspiration to do the things he does.
