Live, played as an introduction with “The freshness of existence”, from the film Stalker” by Andrei Tarkovsky (1979):
“May their wishes come true and may they become defenseless like children, for weakness is power and strength is nothing.
When a man is born, he is weak and pliable; when he dies, he is strong and rigid.
Just like a tree: while it grows, it is tender and flexible, but when it becomes hard and dry, it dies.
Rigidity and strength are companions of death, while weakness and flexibility embody the freshness of existence.
What has become rigid will not prevail.”
Words inspired by the « Tao Te Ching », by Laozi.
