Simplicity has no name is free of desires. Being free of desires it is tranquil. And the world will be at peace of it's own accord.
LaoziPeople who have to fight for their living and are not afraid to die for it are higher persons than those who, stationed high, are too fat to dare to die.
LaoziThe transformation toward eternal life is gradual. The heavy gross energy of body, mind, and spirit must first be purified and uplifted. When the energy ascends... then self mastery can be sought.
LaoziNo misfortune is worse than underestimating the enemy. Underestimating the enemy, I risk losing my treasure.
LaoziWhen a country is in harmony with the Tao, the factories make trucks and tractors. When a country goes counter to the Tao, warheads are stockpiled outside the cities. There is no greater illusion than fear, no greater wrong than preparing to defend yourself, no greater misfortune than having an enemy. Whoever can see through all fear will always be safe.
Laozi
