Chapter 37
Absence of Desire

a
The unchanging God is in non-action
Yet through Him all things are done

b
If powerful leaders live according to God
The world will transform itself
Even if people begin to desire
They will be drawn back by the simplicity of God

The simplicity of God
Brings absence of desire
The absence of desire leads to stillness
Thus, the world will be One in harmony
