Today I picked #68 but before I ould get to read it Jay K joined me for a great conversation around #66 which she picked before we spoke and she was having trouble figuring out how it realted... until we spoke. Julie joined to talk about how her granddaughter Millie changed that course of her life after sharing that with me back in 2022.I spoke on #68 and then Cool Beans joined me for #33.


#33 You are Not Manifestation"
Study others and gain some knowledge.
Study yourself and gain deep wisdom.

Controlling others takes strength.
But controlling your ego and desires
Takes power and perseverance.

Knowing that you have enough gives you wealth,
Grasping for money and love forces you to conform.

Embrace who you are and stay centered in that
And although you will die you will not perish.

#66 "Leading from Behind"
There are great benefits to humility
All rivers flow to the sea
Because its position is lower.

The Master emulates this by always being a servant,
Inspiring from below, leading from behind,
No one is oppressed, they find their own way.

Like rivers so too will the people flow to the Master,
Never feeling oppressed or as if they are in danger,
The whole world supports her and keeps her in their hearts.
Without a reason or a desire to compete
She is never met with competition.

#68 "Do What you Love to Do"
Great athletes love to play, not win
Great fighters love to fight, not be angry
Great generals love to strategize, not destroy
Great employers love to employ, not be a boss.
Great musicians love to play, not perform.

They are not attached to identities or outcomes,
They simply dance with what they love to do.
This is in harmony with Tao.
