Tao Te Ching Chapter 71 to 75
Chapter Seventy-one Tao Te Ching
One who knows what people do not know,Is a person of enlightenment.One who pretends to know what he is ignorant of, is at fault.He who is aware of what he does not know, shall not be at fault.Therefore, a saint is flawless for he is aware of what he truly knows and what he knows not,hence he is flawless.
Chapter Seventy-two Tao Te Ching
When people do not respect the authority,There shall be great misfortune.Do not interfere with the people’s livelihood.Do not despise their living.Because there is no detest against the people,Therefore the people do not detest against the authority.The saint realizes his true nature and henceDoes not distinguish himself.He has a sense of self-respect and thus does not exalt himself.Therefore, he rejects those that are self-distinguished and self-exalted.And abides by these that are self-awareness and self-respect.
Chapter Seventy-three Tao Te Ching
He who is brave in being daring, acts recklessly and shall be killed.He who is brave but acts cautiously and kindly shall live.Of these two, one is beneficial while the other is harmful.What nature wishes, who may know what the reasons are?Thus, the saint is aware of the subtlety and profoundness of the Nature’s Way,So he takes great caution in practicing It.The Tao of Nature,Does not contend, yet easily wins.Does not speak, yet always responds.Does not summon, yet all things gather.Does not contemplate as if at ease,Yet all plans were devised perfectly.The Law of Nature is like a giant web,Although sparsely meshed, nothing can slip through.
Chapter Seventy-four Tao Te Ching
When people do not fear death,There is no use trying to threaten them with death.If people value their lives, and those who break the law were being executed,Then who would dare to commit criminal act?The life and death of all beings are handled by the executioner of Nature.Those who substitute the nature executioner to kill,Is like replacing the master carpenter to chop the wood.One who substitutes the master carpenter to chop the wood,Rarely does not hurt his hands.
Chapter Seventy-five Tao Te Ching
People starved because the ruler taxed too heavily.People are difficult to be ruled,Because the ruler governs with personal desire and establishes too many laws to confuse thepeople.Therefore the people are difficult to be ruled.People take death lightly,Because the ruler pursues after luxurious life and depletes the people.Therefore the people take death lightly.One who does not value his life with self-desire, truly cherishes his life.
