Verse 30 - "The Question of War, part 1"

Verses 30 this week, and 31 next week, are of a unit, and make the central argument for Taoist anti-war, anti-violence positions. While I am no gatekeeper of Taoist orthodoxy, it is clear that Tao's worldview never promotes or abides by violence or war-like ways, whether these ways are by the state, or in one's own life.

I'll continue this theme in next week's Verse 31 treatment.

May you begin your days waging peace, days which become wombs for more peace-waging.
