Today's Tao
Having lost righteousness, there is politeness. (Ch.38)
A: "I will do anything to protect my family."
B: "Fine. But what happened to your righteousness? I suppose you were fighting to save the planet or something."
A": "Now I am fighting for my family. I don't care about someone else's righteousness. By the way, you forgot to say hello to my son."
B: "Oh! Excuse me. I was not polite."
A: "Certainly you are not polite. Listen. My family is my colony. It is my territory. If you are not polite to any of my family members, I will consider it an attack to my kingdom."
Do we really have to accept a man like this one?
My answer is "Yes."
By accepting him, we turn our prayer wheel, which is called the world.
