The Way is hidden and nameless. Still only the Way nourishes and completes.
Thus an army without flexibility never wins a battle. A tree that is unbending is easily broken.
Without going outside, you may know the whole world, without looking through the window, you may see the ways of heaven. The farther you go, the less you know. Thus the sage knows without traveling; he sees without looking; he works without doing.
If you correct your mind the rest of your life will fall into place.
The eternal void is filled with infinite possibilities
When a nation is filled with strife, then do patriots flourish.
