Tao Te Ching Chapter 32-7 Stop


Today's Tao

Once they have got names, they should know how to stop. (Ch.32)


Are names bad?

Probably not.

We can better appreciate Tao's manifestation through each thing if it has a name.

But names come along with discernment.

Discernment leads you to judgement, right?

Isn't judgement the source of discontent?

One has to stop somewhere before he starts suffering from the lack of satisfaction.
