I’ve never been a fan of ancient sermons.
Yet, this line serves as the perfect debug code for our modern anxiety:
“When the root is established, the Way grows.”
We constantly chase “The Way”—
Faster tools, smarter AI, the ultimate shortcut.
Believing that top-tier specs will answer all our problems.
But we forget “The Root.”
A flagship camera cannot replace the eye that truly observes.
Productivity software cannot organize a chaotic mind.
What is the root?
It is a good night’s sleep.
It is being present.
It is the warmth we reserve for those around us.
Do not let technology erode your foundation.
Once the mind is calm and the base is steady,
The path simply unfolds.
Tech is the tool, warmth is the root.
