Zach E. and Buddy C. Convo - Chapter 52 - Yielding Is the Action That Brings Strength!

This is a bonus episode of a weekly Sponsor/Sponsee meeting between Zach E. and Buddy C. In this conversation, much is discussed, including the 52nd Chapter of the Tao Te Ching, and how COVID has brought a realization that Buddy’s level of surrender was much less than he thought -  still a lot of yielding to do! We end the conversation with child rearing, Zach’s upcoming new arrival, and meditation with children.

Here is a link to an online version of the Tao Te Ching that we use in every meeting; https://ttc.tasuki.org/display:Year:1972,1988,1996,2004/section:51
