241002 What I learned in my studies this morning 4
Today's Meditation(s):
Tao Te Ching, 19, Gia-fu Feng and Jane English
Again, a list of good things . . . to avoid?
But see how the last stanza connects so easily to Epictetus, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius?
See simplicity.
Do not add to impressions.
Realize our true nature.
I am my reasoning faculty. Only my judgments are up to me.
Cast off selfishness.
Be cosmopolitan. Be a benefit to society. Think of others.
Temper desire.
Being rich will not satisfy me no matter how much I have, but wanting less will allow me to remain tranquil no matter my straits.
