Chapter 55 of Tao Te Ching
Teacher Luo Edition:

Those who are virtuous are better than the naked child, and the bee sting (four sounds of firewood) and the snake sting (three sounds of benefits) seize birds and animals. The bones are weak and the tendons are soft. I get angry when I don't know the combination of two animals (zui), and I am extremely refined. All day, you say nothing (you say), which is also harmonious. Harmony is common, knowing harmony is clear, health is auspicious, and the heart is strong. If things are strong, they will grow old, which means that they are not Taoists, but have long been Taoists.

Virtuous people are better than naked children, bees sting snakes, birds and animals.

A person with profound virtue is like a newborn baby. Poisonous insects and poisonous snakes don't bite, birds and animals don't fight.

I just made a metaphor here. Don't try with your own children. Hehe, just kidding. But a few years ago, a photo of a girl playing with lions and leopards in Africa became popular on the Internet. Her parents said that as long as we don't hurt animals' hearts, they won't be afraid and won't hurt you.

Of course, I am not talking about how to get along with animals. What I'm saying is that everyone is animal. As a business leader, will you inspire the animal nature of employees or the love of saints?

Less fame and fortune, put away the "heart of the beast" and send out more goodwill.

In this way, we have entered the realm of what Mencius called "the benevolent is invincible", and good people influence others through their own practice, so that people around them can let go of hostility and unite.

The bones are weak and the tendons are soft.

Look at these babies. Their muscles are weak, but their fists are tight.

Some external things are not importuned, seemingly weak and indisputable, but doing things in a down-to-earth manner is actually very stable. In today's words, it means "When bloom arrives, butterflies will come".

I get angry when I don't know the combination of the two, and I am extremely refined.

(Little boy) I don't know about men and women, but I have a physiological reaction because I have enough essence.

Like a child, we have no desire and simply do things, but we can save our strength and energy so as to get rid of our troubles. Use the state of a baby to describe a person with both ability and political integrity.

For example: 1: Gan, a Chinese medicine doctor whom Mr. Luo admired very much, died at the age of 100. He used this passage to keep in good health and formed his own way of keeping in good health: "childlike innocence, turtle desire, ant feeding, monkey walking."

Example 2: There is a story like this: Two people were walking in the desert, and they were very tired when they suddenly saw a well and could drink water. So they got excited and stepped forward. One man took out the golden bowl, and the other man took out the clay bowl to drink water. Suddenly, one person raised his arrogance, and another person began to feel inferior. But they all forget that what they need is "water".

The idea that Taoism has always emphasized is to forget the appearance and focus on the thing itself. Pay attention to "water" instead of "golden bowl or mud bowl"

All day, counting is not silent, but also harmonious.

I cry every day, but I am not dumb, because yin and yang are in harmony to the extreme.

This is a description of a working state, always working without fatigue. Why? Because harmony is the unity of form and spirit, work and desire should be balanced, not overbearing, but harmonious.

For example, some folk masters contacted by Teacher Luo look like ordinary people in appearance, but in fact they are all conscientious and have no desire to do things in a down-to-earth manner.

Harmony is common, knowing harmony is clear, health is auspicious, and the heart is strong. If things are strong, they will grow old, which means that they are not Taoists, but have long been Taoists.

The harmonious state of Yin and Yang is the common sense of the world. People who know this state are wise. If they get the color and aura of life, most people will think it is peaceful and have desires in their hearts, and most people will think it is powerful. Forcibly promoting the growth process of things is to pull out the seedlings and encourage them, which violates the principle of Tao and is bound to fail ahead of schedule.

Do things according to the rules, and don't be too hasty about the results, otherwise, the army will strengthen Ma Zhuang.
