It is wisdom to know others. It is enlightenment to know oneself.
The sage knows himself, but does not parade. He cherishes himself, but does not praise himself.
Always without desire we must be found, If its deep mystery we would sound; But if desire always within us be, Its outer fringe is all that we shall see.
Practice not-doing and everything will fall into place.
The real key to health and happiness and success is self knowledge
When the ancient Masters said, "If you want to be given everything, give everything up," they weren't using empty phrases. Only in being lived by the Tao can you be truly yourself.
