The Tao Te Ching is a classic body of work written by Chinese philosopher, Lao Tzu in the 6th century B.C. The Tao holds words of wisdom & spiritual enlightenment within it's 81 verses. It guides the student & teacher alike with a moral structure known as, The Great Integrity.
Verse 46 Enough Is Enough!
When the Great Integrity permeated our lives,
freely galloping horses fertilized the fields.
When the Great Integrity was lost,
war horses bred in the countryside.
There is no greater calamity
than acquisitiveness racing out of control.
Only those who know when enough is enough
can ever have enough.
