 Wisdom for Today's Times

 There is a vast treasure of wisdom handed down from our ancestors. They too, had to face pestilence, famine, war and pandemics.  They survived and we are here to acknowledge their courage and wisdom.

The following is a short quote from Daoism - a wisdom tradition that emerged from China. Perhaps it has a message for us today ?


 

THE PEACE

OF LIBERATION

 

Without going out of my door I can know all things.

Without looking out of my window I can know the ways of heaven.

For the further one travels, the less on knows.

The wise one therefore , arrives without travelling,

Sees all without looking, does all without doing.

From the : - Dao Te Ching
