about

Casey Driessen (C-String Tunes, ASCAP)

This melody was written to my interpretation and rhythm of the following passage that I randomly opened up to one morning

--------------------------------

If you overesteem great men,
people become powerless.
If you overvalue possessions,
people begin to steal.

The Master leads
by emptying people’s minds
and filling their cores,
by weakening their ambition
and toughening their resolve.
He helps people lose everything
they know, everything they desire,
and creates confusion
in those who think that they know.

Practice not-doing,
and everything will fall into place.

-From Tao Te Ching translated by Stephen Mitchell; HarperPerennial.
