Between yea and nay, how much difference is there?
The gentlest thing in the world overcomes the hardest thing in the world. That which has no substance enters where there is no space. This shows the value of non-action. Teaching without words, performing without actions: that is the Master's way.
The sage knows without traveling, perceives without looking, completes without acting.
That which offers no resistance can enter where there is no space.
With virtue and quietness one may conquer the world.
By steadily disciplining the animal nature, until it becomes one pointed, it is possible to establish conscious awareness of The Eternal.
