Gnosis and the Tao Te Ching, verse 21
The Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, is an ancient Chinese collection of 81 wisdom verses. In the Simple Explanation model, the Tao spoken of by Lao Tzu refers to the metaversal information and principles of organization that have informed our universe since the moment before creation. In gnostic terms, we call this the Fullness of God. This episode presents Verse 21 of the Tao Te Ching through the lens of both the Simple Explanation and the Gnostic Gospel Illuminated.
