Tao can be Tao (1) or abnormal Tao (2). The name can be named ③, which is very famous. Unknown 4, the beginning of everything; The famous ⑤, the mother of all things ⑤. Therefore, there is no desire to be constant to see its embarrassment; There is always a desire to see what it is. The two are the same, but their names are different and they are the same as participation. Mysterious is mysterious, and many people's doors are mysterious.
[translation]
If Tao can be expressed in words, it is often Tao (Tao can be expressed in words, but it is not ordinary Tao); If a "name" can be named by words, it is a constant "name" ("name" can also be explained, it is not an ordinary "name") and "nothing" can be used to describe the situation when the world is in chaos. And "you" is the name of the origin of all things in the universe. Therefore, we should always observe and understand the mystery of Tao from "nothing"; We should always observe and understand the clues of "Tao" from the perspective of "being" and "being", which have the same origin and different names, and can be called profound and profound. It is not a general mystery, but profound and profound, and it is the general door of the mysteries of the universe (from the mystery of "name" to the intangible mystery, "Tao" is the door to understand all the changes of mysteries).

[Original]
Everyone knows that beauty is beauty and evil is (1); Everyone knows it is good, but he is not good at it. Whether there is a phase or not is also 3, the difficulty is also complementary, the length is also 4, the competition is also 5, and the sound sum is also 6, which is consistent with each other. It is based on the sage's inaction ⑦, the teaching without words, the beginning of everything, and the determination to win. The husband only stayed at home, but the husband went.
[translation]
Everyone knows that beauty is because of ugliness. Everyone knows that good is good, because there is evil. Therefore, there is mutual transformation between existence and non-existence, mutual formation between difficulty and easiness, mutual presentation of length and breadth, mutual complementarity of height and breadth, harmony of sound and sound, and continuity-this is eternity. Therefore, the sage treats the world with a view of inaction and educates the world in a silent way: let everything go with the flow without starting, do something without adding their own tendencies, and succeed without pretending to be themselves. Just because you don't take credit, there is no loss.
◆◇◆ Chapter III
[Original]
There is no Shang Xian, which makes people indisputable; Expensive goods can live in 2, making people not thieves 3; Don't see what you want, so the people won't be confused. It is ruled by saints, which can empty their hearts, strengthen their bellies, weaken their aspirations, strengthen their bones, and constantly make the people ignorant and have no desire. If you let your husband know that you can't be 7, you can only be 7, and you will be fine.
[translation]
Do not admire talented people and guide people not to compete with each other; Do not cherish rare property and guide people not to steal; If you don't show off what is enough to cause greed, you won't be confused. Therefore, the sage's principle of governing the country is: emptying people's hearts, filling people's stomachs, weakening people's competitive intentions, and strengthening people's bones and muscles, which often makes people have no desire or desire. That those smart people dare not do anything. Saints do things according to the principle of "inaction" and conform to nature, then the world will not be restless.

The road is empty, and the function is endless. Far-reaching influence! It's like the ancestor of all things. Kill its sharpness, remove its disturbance, harmonize its light and confuse its dirt. Disappear, it seems to exist. I don't know whose descendant it is, but it seems to be the ancestor of the Emperor of Heaven.
◆◇◆ Chapter V
[Original]
Heaven and earth are ruthless, and everything is a grass dog; Saints are ruthless and treat people like pigs. Between heaven and earth, is it still ambiguous? Virtual and unyielding, dynamic and relaxed. Listen to a few poor people, but don't stay in the middle.
[translation]
There is no goodness in heaven and earth. It has no mercy. It treats everything equally like a dog and lets everything go its own way. Saints are heartless, treat people equally, and let people die like pigs. Isn't it like a bellows between heaven and earth? Empty and inexhaustible, the more encouragement, the greater the wind, endless. Many laws and regulations are even more confusing and unworkable, so it is better to be quiet.

The Tao (Valley God) that nourishes everything in the world is eternal, which is the so-called mysterious motherhood. The birth door of the mysterious mother is the foundation of heaven and earth. Endless! It is so constant and has endless functions.
◆◇◆ Chapter VII
[Original]
Eternity, eternity. Heaven and earth can live forever because they are not born by themselves, so they can live forever. Is it based on the sage's being in front of himself and being outside, not on his selfless evil? Therefore, it can be private.
[translation]
Forever, heaven and earth can exist for a long time because they don't run naturally for their own survival, so they can exist for a long time. Therefore, a sage who has the means can stay ahead of others with humility; Only by keeping yourself out of it can you save your own survival. Isn't that because he is selfless? Only in this way can he achieve himself.

Good as water. There is no dispute that water is good for everything, and water is evil for everything, so there are several ways. Live in a good place; Heart, good depth 4; Harmony and kindness (5); Words, integrity; Politics, good governance ⑥; Things, good energy; Move, be a good person, 7. Husband is just indisputable, so there is nothing special.
[translation]
The best people are like water. Water is good at nourishing everything without competing with it, staying in places that people don't like, so it is closest to the Tao. The best people are those who are best at choosing their place of residence, those who are good at keeping calm and unfathomable, those who are good at treating others sincerely, kindly and selflessly, those who are good at keeping their promises, those who are good at streamlining administration, those who can manage the country well, those who can give full play to their own strengths and those who can seize opportunities in action. The best people do what they do because they have indisputable virtues, so there is no fault or blame.

It is better to persist than to have it; If you are sharp, you can't keep it for long. Happy from now on, can't keep it; Rich and arrogant, blame yourself. Retire after success, heaven is also 7.
[translation]
Instead of holding excess, it is better to stop loss in time; It's hard to stay sharp for a long time when you show your edge. Since then, I have been happy and can't stay in Tibet; If wealth reaches the level of arrogance, it is your own curse. If a thing is done successfully, it is necessary to exercise restraint, which is in line with the laws of nature.

Carrying a camp spirit and holding a (1), can you walk? Special gas makes it soft, can it be like a baby? Can the Xuanjian (4) be removed without defects? Is there nothing you can do about loving the people and governing the country? Tianmen opens and closes ⑥. Could it be a woman ⑥? Understand four, can you be ignorant? Pet-name ruby living thing, born without it, without relying on it, long without killing it, is Liu Bei's pet.
[translation]
Spirit and form are one, can they not be separated? Can you be as soft and docile as a baby without desire by concentrating on it? Can you get rid of distractions and observe the mind without blemish? Can loving the people and governing the country follow the law of natural inaction? Can the senses be quiet when exposed to the opposite changes in the outside world? I see, Sida. Can you stop trying? Let all things grow and multiply, produce all things, raise all things without taking them for yourself, and be the master of all things without dominating them. This is called "Xuande".

Thirty spokes ① * * * A hub ② can be used as a car ③ when it is empty. Think of it as a device (4), which is useful when it is not available. The residents are chiseled into rooms (5), and when there is no room, there is a room. Therefore, some people think it is useful, but no one thinks it is useful.
[translation]
Thirty spokes converge into a hole in a hub. Only when there is a hollow place in the hub can the car play its role. Knead clay to make utensils. Only when there is a hollow place in the container can it function as a container. Dig doors and windows to build a house, and use the empty parts in the doors and windows walls to have the function of the house. Therefore, "having" brings convenience to people, and "not having" plays a role.

[translation]
Colorful colors make people see things in a blur; Noisy tones make people's hearing fail; Rich food, so that people do not know its taste; Addicted to hunting, people feel wild and crazy; Rare things make people behave badly. Therefore, saints only want to eat their stomachs and do not pursue music and sound entertainment, so they abandon the temptation of material desires and maintain a stable and contented lifestyle.

If you are shocked by humiliation, you are in big trouble. What is being humiliated and surprised? Pets are next (3). If you get a surprise, if you lose it, it means you feel humiliated and surprised. What does it mean to be in danger? I have a big patient because I have a body and I don't have a body. What's my problem? Therefore, you are the world, if you can send it to the world; Love is the world, if it can support it.
[translation]
Being loved and humiliated by others is like being scared, treating such a big disaster as honor and disgrace and as precious as your own life. What do you mean by being humiliated? Being loved is humble, being loved is particularly surprising, and losing is amazing. This is called being spoiled and humiliated. What does it mean to value great misfortune as much as your own life? I am in big trouble because I have a body; If I have no body, what harm will I have? Therefore, the precious body governs the world, and the world can entrust it to him; Only by cherishing your body can you govern the world and the world rely on it.

Turn a blind eye and call it easy; If you don't listen, it's called Xi ②; If you can't beat it, you can call it Wei ③. These three things can't be blamed on ④, so they are mixed into one ⑤. There is no ⑦ on the top and no ⑦ on the bottom. The rope is indescribable and belongs to nothing. It means no shape, no image, no meaning. I saw it without its head, and then it disappeared. Hold the ancient way to resist the present. Those who can know the ancient times are called Daoji.
[translation]
If you can't see it, it's called "easy"; If you can't hear it, call it "Xi"; If you can't touch it, it's called "micro" The shapes of these three can't be investigated. They are one. Its top is neither bright nor bright; It doesn't look dark and obscure, headless and tailless, but it can't be named, and all the movements are back to the invisible state. This is the shape without shape, and you can't see the image of the object. This is "drifting away". You can't see its front when you meet it, and you can't see its back when you follow it. Grasp the pre-existing "Tao" to control the concrete things that exist in reality. Knowing and understanding the beginning of the universe is called knowing.

Dunxi, if it is simple, attending; ⑾ If it is a valley; If mixed, it is turbid; Who can turn turbidity into stillness? Who can calm down? People who protect in this way don't want to make a profit. Husband is not profitable, can be covered up and become new.
[translation]
In ancient times, people who were good at walking around the streets were subtle and profound, which was very understandable. Because I can't know him, I can only describe him reluctantly: he is cautious, as if crossing the river on water in winter; He is alert and alert, as if to guard against the attack of neighboring countries; He looked respectful and solemn, as if he were going to dinner. He moves freely, as if the ice is slowly melting; He is simple and honest, as if there were no processed raw materials; He is broad-minded, open-minded, like a deep valley; He is generous and tolerant, like muddy water. Who can calm the turbidity and clarify it slowly? Who can quietly change and slowly show vitality? Those who keep this way should not be complacent. It is precisely because he is never complacent that he can get rid of the past and start over.

To the virtual pole, keep quiet; Everything is two, let me see. A lot of things, all return to the source. In the final analysis, 55555555. Call me often, and know each other often and clearly. I often don't know that I am a murderer. Know how to be patient, be patient for the public, be patient for the whole ⑾, all for the sky ⑿, the sky is the Tao, the Tao is long, and there is no body or danger.
[translation]
Try your best to make the mind quiet to the extreme and make life quiet. All things prosper together, so I examine the reasons for their reciprocating. Everything swarms and returns to its origin. Returning to the original is called quietness, and quietness is called reincarnation. Returning to life is called nature, knowing the laws of nature is called cleverness, and reckless behavior that does not know the laws of nature often brings trouble and disaster. People who know the laws of nature are all-encompassing. All-encompassing people will be calm, just and comprehensive, and they will conform to the "Tao" of nature. The Tao that conforms to nature will last for a long time and will not endanger life.

The best ruler, the people don't know his existence; The second ruler, people close to him and praise him; The ruler came again and the people feared him; As a minor ruler, people despise him.

[translation]
Abandoning cleverness and ingenuity, people can get a hundredfold benefit; Abandoning benevolence and righteousness can restore the nature of filial piety; Abandon cunning for profit, and thieves will be gone. Sages, benevolent people and cleverness are all ingenious decorations, which are not enough to be used as the laws to control social diseases.

original text
Juexue, no worries. Only useful, out of geometry. What is the difference between good and evil? We must not be afraid of what people are afraid of. Wild, but not in the end! Everyone is bustling, like a prison, like a stage in spring. I'm not afraid of anything, just like an unborn child. Take a ride, if you go, you won't come back. Everyone has more than enough, only me. I'm a fool, and my heart is uncomfortable. The laity is distinct, and I am alone. Laity observation, I am bored alone. Suddenly, like the sea, it is endless. Everyone has some, but I am stubborn and contemptible. I am different from others, but it is more expensive for me to eat my mother.
Popular translation
Cutting off your smart mind will make you have no sorrow to worry about separately. You can avoid secular troubles, that is, you can isolate secular "troubles." How far is the difference between commitment and condemnation? What is the difference between beauty and ugliness? People have to be afraid of what they are afraid of. This trend has been like this since ancient times, as if there is no end. Everyone is bustling and in high spirits, just like going to a grand banquet, just like going on stage to see the beautiful scenery of spring. But I am indifferent and indifferent to a person's peace. Chaos, like a baby can't laugh yet. Tired and idle, it seems that the prodigal son has not come home yet. Everyone has something left behind, but I feel that I have nothing. I really only have a fool's heart! Everyone is dazzling, but I am in a daze; Everyone is so harsh, but I am so honest and generous. Trance, like the surging sea; I am in a trance, like wandering, with nowhere to stay. All the people in the world are smart and skilled, but I am stupid and clumsy. The only difference between me and others is that I have got the Tao.
[Original]
Confucius, virtue, ability, and obedience. Tao is a thing, but it is only an embarrassment. It's embarrassing that there are images like 5. I was in a daze, and there was something inside; Rudder, rudder, rudder, rudder, rudder, rudder, rudder, rudder; 33333333333; 33333333333; How do I know the shape of the public? With this ⑿.
[translation]
The form of virtue is determined by Tao. Tao has no definite fixed entity. It is so trance, but there is an image in it. This is so trance-like, but there is something in it. It is so abstruse and obscure, but it has essence; This essence is the most real, and this essence can be trusted. From today to ancient times, its name can never be abolished. According to it, we can observe the beginning of everything. How do I know how it all started? I learned it from Tao.

It is not self-evident, so it is obvious, and it is not self-cutting, so it is active; Not proud, so long. The husband does not dispute, and the world cannot contend with it. Is the so-called "happiness" in ancient times empty? Sincerely return.
[translation]
Bend to exist, bend to be straight; Low-lying places will be full, and the old ones will be updated; If you take less, you will get it, and if you take too much, you will be confused. Therefore, those who have the means to adhere to this principle as the paradigm of world affairs can show it without self-praise; If you are not self-righteous, you can distinguish right from wrong; If you don't boast, you can get credit; Not self-sustaining, so it can last for a long time. Because he doesn't argue with others, no one in the world can argue with him. In ancient times, the so-called "compromise will save", how can it be empty talk? It is actually achievable.

I hope it is natural. Therefore, the wind is not limited to the morning, and the showers are not limited to the whole day. Which one? Heaven and earth. Heaven and earth can't last long, what about people? Therefore, those who are engaged in the Tao, the same way 4; Virtue and virtue are the same; The loss is the same. Those who are with the Tao are also happy; With Germany, Germany is also happy; Like a loser, you are happy when you lose. If you don't believe enough, you don't believe enough!
[translation]
Naturally, it cannot be said that government decrees do not disturb the people. The strong wind won't last all morning, nor will the heavy rain last all day. Who did this to it? Heaven and earth. The anger of heaven and earth won't last long, let alone people. Therefore, those who engage in Taoism are the same, those who engage in morality are of the same mind, and those who engage in losses are the same. Tao is also happy to get people who are the same as Tao; Germany is also happy to get people like Germany; The same person as losing, I am glad to get him. If the integrity of the ruler is insufficient, some people will distrust it.

Enterprise ① does not stand, enterprise ② does not stand; People who see themselves are unknown; Naturally not obvious; Self-cutting is reactive; Proud people don't last long. Also in the Tao, redundant. Things or evil, so there is no place for people who have a way.
[translation]
Stand on tiptoe high, but can't stand up; Stride fast, but not far. What you see is not clear; Self-righteousness is not obvious; Blow your own horn, you can't afford to make contributions; An arrogant person cannot be the leader of everyone. In Tao's view, these impatient and grandiose behaviors can only be said to be leftovers. Because they are disgusting things, people who have the means will never do this.

Things are human beings, born naturally. Loneliness, loneliness, independence, freedom and no danger can be the mother of heaven and earth. I don't know its name. The strong word is Dao ⑥ and the strong name is Da ⑥. To say "death" means that "death" is far away, and "death" is far away. The old road is big, big, big and crowded. ⑾ There are four major areas in the domain, one of which is inhabited. Man's law is based on the earth, the earth is based on the sky, the sky is based on the Tao, and the Tao is natural.
[translation]
A thing is mixed and existed before the formation of heaven and earth. You can't hear its sound or see its shape. It is silent and empty, independent and eternal, without any external force, cyclical and never exhausted, which can be regarded as the foundation of everything. I don't know its name, but I reluctantly called it "Tao" and then reluctantly named it "Da". It runs endlessly, running endlessly into the distance, into the distance and back to its original place. So, there are big, big, big, big people. There are four universes and people live in one of them. People take the method of land, the land takes the method of heaven, and heaven takes the method of "Tao", and Tao is pure nature.
