Episode Synopsis

In this episode, 2-2, of LTT Shorts, Taoist Master Mikel Steenrod explores why most live by “rules of thumb” while a few chase divine truth—and why only an inner calling makes the journey worth it.
Master Steenrod contrasts the everyday “rules of thumb” that guide most people through life with the Daoist pursuit of divine truth—an alignment with reality as it truly is. He explains why such a quest demands refining the whole self, not just thinking harder, and why only those with a deep, inner compulsion should undertake it. For the rare few, truth is more than knowledge—it is power, offering options and freedom beyond ordinary living.
