Listen "Beyond good and bad: Unlocking balance"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we explore another chapter of the Tao Te Ching and uncover a powerful truth: opposites define each other. You’ll learn how good and bad, easy and hard, success and failure are all connected, and why true wisdom comes from embracing both sides of life. Plus, we’ll dive into the concept of wu wei—effortless action—and how it can transform the way you learn, grow, and navigate challenges.📝 Want to take your learning further?Access the full transcription, exercises to practice English, and expanded vocabulary in the PDF:📌https://drive.google.com/file/d/1p2L3lC42vVD7dR6Zmv2OUCt-ced3kJ5C/view?usp=sharing📜 The full text of Chapter 2 from the Tao Te Ching:When people see some things as beautiful, other things become ugly.When people see some things as good, other things become bad.Being and non-being create each other.Difficult and easy support each other.Long and short define each other.High and low depend on each other.Before and after follow each other.Therefore, the Master acts without doing anything and teaches without saying anything.Things arise and she lets them come; things disappear and she lets them go.She has but doesn’t possess, acts but doesn’t expect.When her work is done, she forgets it.That is why it lasts forever.📢 Stay connected!📲 Follow the host: @luiz.manzato for more insights.🎓 Want English lessons?
