Excerpt
The limits of the limitless, the limitlessness of the limited,—these are called fulness and emptiness, renovation and decay. Tao causes fulness and emptiness, but it is not either. It causes renovation and decay, but it is not either. It causes beginning and end, but it is not either. It causes accumulation and dispersion, but it is not either.

✨ To meditate on today
According to Chuang Tzu, the Principle produces all the alternations, fullness and emptiness, birth and death, without being confused with them: all things proceed from it and evolve under its influence. Today, when your day has its ups and downs, remember that beyond these changes there remains a stable source, and return to it with a calm breath.
