Do you imagine that the universe is agitated?
Go into the desert at night and look at the stars.

So many beautiful and powerful reminders such as this can be found in this recently discovered edition of the Hua Hu Ching of Lao Tzu, (above is verse 5) as presented by Brian Walker. Reminders of what? Our true nature. The message of this little book is a very powerful tonic, especially in these Trumpled times…
