The Simple Way, Part 32

The Simple Way
The Life & Teachings of Zhouzi
by Scott Bradley


Zhouzi found the woman beneath the courtyard tree and instructed her in the Simple Way and bid her return whenever she wished at that same time of day.

“Master,” said she, “I will follow this way, for it only just is what seems natural to me. And thank you, too, for affirming my equality.”

“This too is natural,” replied Zhouzi. “Thank Reality. But lest we lose our perspective, know that I say the same for this wonderful tree.”
