    Rest, Dear Human. Our cultures have forgotten the power of creation found in rest. The Tao holds some wisdom here (as do other ancient texts) "If you want to become full, let yourself be empty. If you want to be reborn, let yourself die" - Tao Te Ching - All of life comes from the stillness, the emptiness, the meaninglessness. The "problem" dear ones is our inability to be in the stillness. Life is in the stillness. Life is in the rest. Creation comes from the nothing. Listen in, Dear Human, on the power of rest.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/dearhuman)
