E3: Make it easy to take it easy.

In this episode, I talk to  Peter Merel, the author of the Agile Tao about war, peace, ecosystems, beaurocracy and harmony. All embodied in the first poem of 'Ecosystem' - the third part of the book. 43. Horses (xlvi/lxiv b) When people live in harmony Horses carry fertilizer through their fields; When people fall from harmony Horses carry soldiers through their streets. There’s no worse loss than losing peace, No worse waste than making war, No worse defeat than defending dirt. To fertilize peace, Make it easy to take it easy. --- The wonderful music recorded by Guitarist Gilad Hekselman, bassist Petros Klampanis and drummer Ziv Ravitz can be found here.
