Tao-19

Give up sainthood, renounce wisdom, and it will be a hundred times better for everyone.
Give up kindness, renounce morality, and men will rediscover filial piety and love.
Give up ingenuity, renounce profit, and bandits and thieves will disappear.
These three are outward forms alone;
they are not sufficient in themselves.
It is more important to see the simplicity, to realise one's true nature, to cast off selfishness and temper desire.

Hi Venkat
Hope you're ok and doing well. I was wondering if you still the dv tapes as I lost my hdd due to technical problems. People here are pestering me for an end product.
