Find the link to the Tao Te Ching located in the weekly folder and read seven chapters/stanzas (chapters are usually only a few lines long and they are called something different depending on the translation you read). After reading your seven passages, reflect upon and answer at least three of the following questions (remember to include direct quotes from the primary source): 
Pick a piece of advice that you find interesting, helpful, or especially wise. 
How did the reading connect to your overall understanding of Taoism? 
How did the reading reflect the Tao or help you understand the Tao? 
How were the main Daoist virtues reflected in the Tao Te Ching? 
How does it compare/contrast to your own principles? 
Always avoid posts that simply state that you believe something different. It is expected and common for many people to have different beliefs, so this information will not be pertinent to these posts.
