166: The Foundations of Enlightenment [Tao Te Ching Ch.7]

About this episode

The episode explores the themes of enlightenment and classism through Chapter Seven of the Tao Te Ching.

Looking at Chapter Seven of the Tao Te Ching, we ask ourselves, is enlightenment just a bunch of classist propaganda? Is it just a lie to pacify the people, or is it a people's movement, rising from the ground up? Preparing ourselves for reincarnation, it's another foundational episode of Meta-Cosmos! …Hosted by Bartleby and Artemus Neehi. …Produced by Isaac Bluefoot. …Theme Music by Royal Jelly
