The whole world knows that beauty is beauty and evil. As we all know, goodness is good, but it is not good. Therefore, there is no phase, it is difficult to complement each other, the length is consistent, the height is oblique, and the rhythm is consistent. It is based on the sage's inaction. He teaches by example and does everything without hesitation. Born without, do without, live with success. Pet-name ruby, husband only, is not to go.
Everyone in the world knows how to be beautiful, so there is ugliness; Everyone knows what is good, so there is bad. As a result, reality and nothingness breed each other, and the difficulties complement each other. The long and short appear in contrast, and the high and low depend on each other. Monosyllables and echoes correspond to each other to form a tune, which is connected in sequence. Therefore, the sage treats the world with a view of inaction, educates the world in a silent way, and lets everything grow naturally without interference. Raise everything without taking it for yourself, raise everything without relying on one's own strength, and achieve everything without claiming merit. Because he doesn't take credit, the credit won't leave him.
Brief introduction of Tao Te Ching
Tao Te Ching, also known as Tao Te Ching, Laozi's Five Thousand Words and Laozi's Five Thousand Articles, is a work of China before the separation of pre-Qin philosophers in ancient times and an important source of Taoist philosophy.
Tao Te Ching is divided into two parts. The first part of the original text is the Tao Te Ching, and the second part is the Tao Te Ching, without chapters. Later, it was changed to the Tao Te Ching in the first 37 chapters, and the Tao Te Ching in the last 38 chapters, divided into 8 1 chapters.
The text of Tao Te Ching takes "morality" in the philosophical sense as the main line, and discusses the ways of self-cultivation, governing the country, using troops and keeping in good health, but most of them aim at politics. It is the so-called "inner sage and outer king" theory, which has profound meaning and wide tolerance and is known as the king of all classics.
Tao Te Ching is one of the greatest works in the history of China, which has a profound influence on traditional philosophy, science, politics and religion. According to the statistics of UNESCO, the Tao Te Ching is the most widely translated and published cultural masterpiece except the Bible.
