Whoever is planted in the Tao will not be rooted up. Whoever embraces the Tao will not slip away. Her name will be held in honor from generation to generation. Let the Tao be present in your life and you will become genuine. Let it be present in your family and your family will flourish. Let it be present in your country and your country will be an example to all countries in the world. Let it be present in the universe and the universe will sing. How do I know this is true? By looking inside myself.

In the pursuit of learning, every day something is acquired. In the pursuit of Tao, every day something is dropped.

The wise trusts not only to his physical eyes - thus he can see clearly.

The group will not prosper if the leader grabs the lion's share of the credit for the good work that has been done.

The sage does not strive to be great. Thereby he can accomplish the great.

Tao loves and nourishes all things, but does not dominate it over them.

I confess that there is nothing to teach: no religion, no science, no writings which will lead your mind back to Spirit. Today I speak this way, tomorrow that, but always the Path is beyond words and beyond mind.
