Manage episode 290948910 series 2917671
Episode 37 looks at chapter 52, which is intensely complex and profound.

1. The mother and the children - the unity of all things, Lao Tzu's "theology", and absorbing the qualities of God through union
2. "Shut your mouth, guard your senses" - making space to experience union, echoes back to the overflowing bowl of chapter 9 and the sensory overload of chapter 12 making space to experience union
