“He has nothing to gain from the performance or non-performance of action. His welfare depends not on any contribution that an earthly creature can make.”

“The way produces the One. The one produces the two. Two produce three. Three produce the myriad creatures.”


Anyone know what the meaning of these two quotations mean? Im actually suppose to briefly summarize these while explaining the key ideas and themes present

>"the" meaning

Philosophy has no singular meaning.
That is like asking for the answer to an opinion, or a piece of art.

"Anyone know what these could mean"
Because of this mistake, I shant not speculate or philosophize with you.

Yeah, it's almost as ridiculous as starting a semantics argument in the HW help section.

There is absolutely no way that Philosophy can be a homework assignment.
You shouldn't have come here.

Philosophy101 - if it's wrong, it's more true.

Those that feel philosophy is something to be taught are truly the least philosophical.

Philosophy cannot be taught, you can only gain philosophical ideas from your own perspective.
Getting paid to be a philosopher is the most wondrous philosophical question in this thread.
