Chapter Fifty-six Tao Te Ching
The wise does not speak.He who speaks is not wise.Keep silent and close one’s mouth.Keep guard on one’s sensory organs.Round off one’s edges.Untie the entangled.Harmonize with the glory.Mix with the lowliness.This is called the Mystic Unity.Because the wise is unified with all and has no distinction,Thus, one cannot get close to him,Nor can one keep far away from him,One cannot benefit him,Nor can one harm him,One cannot honor him,Nor can one disgrace him.Therefore, he is honored by the whole world.
Chapter Fifty-seven Tao Te Ching
Govern a nation with the right principle,Fight a battle with the tactics of surprise,Rule over the world with peace and natural effort.How do I know that this so?By the following:The more prohibitions that are imposed on people,The poorer the people become.The more sharp weapons the people possess,The greater is the chaos in the country.The more clever and crafty the people become,The more unusual affairs occur.The more laws and regulations that exist,The more thieves and brigands appear.Hence, the saint declares:I act effortlessly with the Way of Tao,Thus, people transform themselves naturally.I love tranquility and peach,Thus, people naturally follow the right Way.I do not exhaust people with labor,Thus, people naturally are wealthy.I have no personal desires,Thus, people naturally are innocent and simple.
Chapter Fifty-eight Tao Te Ching
When the government is dull,People are simple and sincere.When the government is complex and stringent,People are cunning and shall cause trouble.Calamity is what blessings depend upon.In blessings there hides the calamity.Who knows the ultimate end of the cycle of calamity and blessings?Is there no true principle that exists?The normal may revert and become unusual.The good may revert and turn into evil.Long indeed, man has been under such delusion.Therefore, the saint abides by firm principle and does not depart from it.He is honest and not mean.He is upright and not rue.He is honored and not eminent.
Chapter Fifty-nine Tao Te Ching
In governing one’s life and serving the nature,There is nothing better than to follow the Way of simplicity.Simplicity is to restrain one’s desires.To restrain one’s desires is to practice the virtue of Nature Way.By practicing the virtue of Nature Way,One is capable to accomplish anything.With the ability to accomplish anything,One can achieve the infinite realm.By achieving the infinite realm,One can then become a true leader of a nation.To govern a nation with the Law of Nature is to be long enduring.This is regarded as a profound and firm foundation of the everlasting Tao.
Chapter Sixty Tao Te Ching
Ruling a great nation is like frying small fish.When they are over stirred, they will break into pieces.Guide the world with Tao,Then the spiritual beings would lose their power.It is in fact not that the spiritual beings had lost their power,But that their spiritual power cannot harm people,But that the true nature of the saint has harmonized with the spiritual power and hence will causeno harm.Since they both do not harm each other,Therefore they will harmonize with the true virtue to embrace the Oneness, Tao.
