"Shut your mouth"- and discover unity (chapter 52, pt 1) - a podcast by Corey Farr

Episode 37 looks at chapter 52, which is intensely complex and profound.

I start by musing on the importance of guarding our words and senses in Lao Tzu's style in the midst of a world of constant information overload and communication lacking in nuance.

1. The mother and the children - the unity of all things, Lao Tzu's "theology", and absorbing the qualities of God through union

2. "Shut your mouth, guard your senses" - making space to experience union, echoes back to the overflowing bowl of chapter 9 and the sensory overload of chapter 12 making space to experience union
