Tao Te Ching 72

1When the people do not fear what they ought to fear, that which is their great dread will come on them.

2Let them not thoughtlessly indulge themselves in their ordinary life; let them not act as if weary of what that life depends on.

3It is by avoiding such indulgence that such weariness does not arise.

4Therefore the sage knows (these things) of himself, but does not parade (his knowledge); loves, but does not (appear to set a) value on, himself. And thus he puts the latter alternative away and makes choice of the former.

WEBREATH · 11:11

«Giving undivided attention to the vital breath, one can become as a tender babe» — Tao Te Ching 10

Breath is one for all: everyone lives by it, whoever they are and whatever they believe. Every day at 11:11 local time people stop for sixty seconds, breathe, and thank GOD for the breath — each in their own words, each within themselves. In that minute we are One Breath.

WEBREATH — the Minute at 11:11, your own local time — we are One Breath
