The sage wears clothes of coarse cloth but carries jewels in his bosom; He knows himself but does not display himself; He loves himself but does not hold himself in high esteem.

Water does not force its way.

Nature is not human hearted.

What the Way is to the world, the stream is to the river and the sea.

Letting the mind control the vital breath is called force.

Before healing others, heal yourself

To realize that our knowledge is ignorance, This is a noble insight. To regard our ignorance as knowledge, This is mental sickness. Only when we are sick of the sickness Shall we cease to be sick. The Sage is not sick, being sick of sickness; This is the secret of health.
