By sustaining by disciplining the animal spirit,
by embracing unity one can be without disintegration.
by embracing unity one can be without disintegration.
By concentrating the vital force,
by inducing tenderness,
one can be an infant child.
By washing,
by cleaning,
by profound intuition,
one can be without faults.
In loving the people,
in ruling the country,
one can practise non-action.
The Heaven's gate opening closing
one can act [like] a mother-bird
Bright, white, the four [quarters],
penetrating one can be not-knowing.
Quickening them,
feeding them,
he produces and not owns.
He acts and not claims.
He raises and not rules.
This is called profound virtue.
