Saying 48: Two Making Peace Move a Mountain
If two make peace with each other in a single house, they will tell the mountain to move and it will move.
Commentary
Read alongside saying 106, the “two” are not only two people but the two halves of a divided self. Reconciliation, inner or outer, is what produces the power.
