Original text:

Great countries are dirty. The world (Pìn) is also the turn of the world. You often use stillness to win the game, and take stillness as the next step. So the small state below the big state takes the small state; The big state below the small state takes the big state. So, take it off or take it off. Big countries just want to be livestock, while small countries just want to be human beings. Husband and wife each want something, and the older one should be the next one.

Explanation:

A big country should be in a feminine position, a place where the world meets, just like living in the downstream of a river. Feminine femininity is often superior to that of men because of calmness, because of calmness and being able to get along. Therefore, big countries are humble to small countries and can gather small countries; If a small country is humble to a big country, it can accommodate a big country.

So sometimes big countries are humble to converge with small countries, and sometimes small countries are humble to accommodate big countries. Big countries only want to raise small countries, and small countries only want to accommodate big countries; In this way, big countries and small countries can get what they want, and big countries should be especially modest.

Content of Tao Te Ching

The Classic of Tao Te Ching, also known as the True Classic of Morality, Five Thousand Words of Laozi and Five Thousand Articles of Laozi, was a work before the separation of pre-Qin philosophers in ancient China, which was highly praised by the philosophers at that time. This legend was written by Laozi (Li Er) in the Spring and Autumn Period and is 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 takes "virtue" in the philosophical sense as the key link, and discusses the ways of self-cultivation, governing the country, using troops and keeping in good health, but most of them focus on politics. It is the so-called "inner sage and outer king" theory, which has profound meaning and is inclusive.
