Truly, the greatest gift you have to give is that of your own self-transformation.

The world is ruled by letting things take their course. It cannot be ruled by interfering.

To manage your mind, know that there is nothing, and then relinquish all attachment to nothingness.

Act without doing; work without effort. Think of the small as large and the few as many. Confront the difficult while it is still easy; accomplish the great task by a series of small acts. The Master never reaches for the great; thus she achieves greatness. When she runs into a difficulty, she stops and gives herself to it. She doesn't cling to her own comfort; thus problems are no problem for her.

The world may be known Without leaving the house.

When bitter enemies make peace, surely some bitterness remains.

The great Way is easy, yet people prefer the side paths. Be aware when things are out of balance. Stay centered within the Tao.
