A Bottomless Cup: Discovering a Source That Never Fails


Listen Later


In this episode, we reflect on Chapter 4 of the Tao Te Ching, where the Tao is compared to an endless well—a source that’s used but never used up. You’ll discover how the Tao represents a hidden yet ever-present force, filled with infinite possibilities, and how trusting this natural flow can shift the way you live and learn. Especially when it comes to language—the more you use it, the more it grows.

📜 The full text of Chapter 4 from the Tao Te Ching:

The Tao is like a well: used but never used up.
It is like the eternal void: filled with infinite possibilities.
It is hidden but always present.
I don’t know who gave birth to it.
It is older than God.
