PAGE 231 Lesson11《道德经》上善若水的哲学 Be humble——and other lessons from the philosophy of water Speaker： Raymond Tang 英文版 00:00 You may know this feeling: you wake up to multiple unread notifications on your mobile phone. Your calendar is already packed with meetings, sometimes double- or triple-booked. You feel engaged, you feel busy. In fact, you feel productive. But at the end of it all, something still feels missing. You try to figure out what it is. But before you do, the next day starts all over again. That was how I felt two years ago. I felt stressed; I felt anxious. I felt a bit trapped. The world around me was moving very quickly. And I didnt know what to do. I started wondering to myself: How do I keep up with all this? How do we find fulfillment in a world thats literally changing as fast as we can think, or maybe even faster? 01:03 I started looking for answers. I spoke to many people, I spoke to my friends, I spoke to my family. I even read many self-help books. But I couldnt find anything satisfactory. In fact, the more self-help books I read, the more stressed and anxious I became. 01:22 It was like I was feeding my mind with junk food, and I was becoming mentally obese. 01:30 I was about to give up, until one day, I found this. The Tao Te Ching: The Book of the Way and Its Virtue. This is an ancient Chinese philosophy classic that was written more than 2,600 years ago. And it was by far the thinnest and the smallest book on the bookshelf. It only had 81 pages. And each page had a short poem. I remember I flipped to one particular poem. Here it is. Its beautiful, isnt it? 02:07 Let me read it out to you. 02:09 The supreme goodness is like water. It benefits all things without contention. In dwelling, it stays grounded. In being, it flows to depths. In expression, it is honest. In confrontation, it stays gentle. In governance, it does not control. In action, it aligns to timing. It is content with its nature and therefore cannot be faulted. 02:42 Wow
