I love both Zen and Taoism. They resonate with so much in John of the Cross for me. I am reading a book about Taoism that I ran across at the library today, and each brief chapter (brief like the chapters/verses in the Tao Te Ching itself) contains much in few words. I remember my first encounter with the Tao Te Ching when I was a novice at Marylake. Every page seemed to send me off in a pondering, contemplative mood.One line in the book I am reading struck me particularly today:
Listen more, judge less.
What I need to hear today (everyday), fer sure, fer sure!
