The story of Sei Weng, the farmer, has its origins in the ancient Chinese essay collection Huainanzi (淮南子) in the early Han Dynasty, more than 2000 years ago. Like many ancient texts, the story of Sei Weng carries on due to the timeless nature of the message that is shared in the parable. The Parable of the Chinese Farmer is one that simply teaches us that we never truly know the consequences of our actions. All we can do is move forward with positive intent and then proceed in stride with whatever the consequence turns out to be.

What is Zeus With Bruce?
Although commonly used as a noun, Bruce views the word Zeus when used as a verb to indicate a sense of growth from the pits of despair and empty vessels of ignorance to mountain tops of hope and knowledge. Topics include philosophy, sociology, psychology, culture, mindset, and everything else. Interviews with humans from all walks of life are included to broaden our perspectives.
At its core, Zeus with Bruce is about Embracing Wisdom and Rejecting Ignorance.
