Chapter 78 Tao Te Ching – Exerting Powerlessness Like Water! - a podcast by Tao Recovery Community
from 2020-04-23T17:35:12
In the 78th Chapter of the Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu gives another analogy demonstrating the paradoxical strength of water. We see so much more peace in our lives as we learn to respond like water in our everyday life - an excellent discussion of the similar characteristics of water, love, and recovery.
