If you understand the Tao, your wisdom will be deep; if your wisdom is deep, your knowledge will be far away; if your knowledge will be far away, no one will be able to see its extreme.

Weifu can make people not see the extremes of their actions, and those who do not see the extremes of their actions can protect themselves and their country.

If the number of workers changes careers, they will lose their merit, and if the number of authors changes careers, they will lose their merit.

The work of one person will kill half a day, and the work of five people will die in ten days.

The work of ten thousand people will be destroyed in half a day, and the work of fifty thousand people will be killed in ten days.

However, the number of people who change the situation is too large, and the losses will be huge.

Whenever laws and regulations change, interests and harms change, and interests and harms change, and civil affairs change. Changes in civil affairs are called business changes.

Therefore, from a theoretical perspective, if you serve the masses and count them, you will have little success; if you hide a large weapon and count it, you will suffer many injuries; if you cook small dishes and count them, you will be killed by thieves; if you govern a big country, if you count them, the people will suffer.

Therefore, a Taoist king values ??emptiness and tranquility, and values ??reform.

If people have desires, their plans will be messed up; plans will be messed up if they have excessive desires; if their desires are extreme, then evil intentions will prevail; if evil intentions prevail, things will come to an end; if things end, disaster will hardly occur.

From this perspective, disasters arise from evil intentions, and evil intentions are induced by desirable desires.

But if you are like this, if you advance, you will teach good people to become traitors, if you retreat, they will bring disaster to good people.

If traitors arise, they will invade the weak ruler; if disaster strikes, the people will suffer many injuries.

However, it is possible for the likes of desire to invade the weak king from above and harm the people from below.

It is a serious crime for a husband to invade a weak king and harm the people below.

Therefore, it is said: "No disaster is greater than the desire." Therefore, the sage does not attract the five colors, and does not indulge in vocal music; the wise king is cheap and plays the good, and abandons the lustful beauty.

Tao is the way all things are and the basis for all principles.

Reason is the text that makes things happen; Tao is the reason why all things are made.

Therefore, it is said: "Tao is the principle of reason." Things have reason and cannot be compared to each other; things have reason and cannot be compared to each other, so reason is the control of things.

All things have different laws, and all things have different laws and principles.

Based on the principles of all things, it has to be transformed; it cannot be transformed, so it is impermanent.

Impermanence means that the life of death is born, all wisdom is considered, and everything is ruined and prosperous.

The sky needs it to be high, the earth needs it to hide it, Wei Dou needs it to achieve its majesty, the sun and moon have to keep its light, the five constants have to keep their position, the stars have to guide their movements, and the four seasons have it.

It can be used to control the change of Qi, Xuanyuan can use it to master the four directions, Chisong can use it to unite the heaven and earth, and saints can use it to write articles.

Dao was as wise as Yao and Shun, as crazy as Jie Yu, as destroyed as Jie and Zhou, as prosperous as Tang and Wu.

If I think it is close, it travels to the four extremes; if I think it is far away, it is always at my side; if I think it is dark, its light is clear; if I think it is bright, it is dim.

And the heaven and earth are made possible, the thunder is harmonized, and the things in the universe are accomplished by relying on it.

The emotions of ordinary people are uncontrollable and formless, they are soft and weak at any time, and they correspond to the principles.

All things must die, and all things must be alive; all things must be defeated, and all things must be successful.

The Tao is like water. Those who drown will die if they drink too much, and those who are thirsty will live if they drink too much. They are like swords and halberds. A fool will bring disaster if he acts in anger, and a sage will be blessed if he punishes violence.

Therefore, it is obtained by death, it is obtained by life, it is obtained by defeat, and it is obtained by success.

A saint's travels in the world do not have any harm to others. If he has no intention of harming others, he will be harmed by no one. If he does not harm others, he will not be prepared for others.

The difficult things in the world must be done with ease, and the great things in the world must be done with details.

An embankment of a thousand feet will be destroyed by the dens of ants; a room of a hundred feet will be burned by smoke from the gaps.

Therefore, it is said: When Bai Gui walks on the embankment, his holes are plugged, and when his father-in-law's careful fire also covers the gaps.

Therefore, Bai Gui has no water troubles, and his father-in-law has no fire troubles.

All of these are cautious and easy to take refuge in, and respect for those who are careful and far-sighted.

Bian Que saw Duke Huan of Cai and stood there.

Bian Que said: "You have a disease in your body. If you don't treat it, you will be afraid of it." Huan Hou said: "I don't have it." Bian Que came out.

Marquis Huan said: "It is credit to the doctor if he can cure the disease well." After ten days' stay, Bian Que saw him again and said: "Your disease is in your skin. If you don't cure it, it will get worse." Marquis Huan did not respond.

Bian Que came out.

Marquis Huan was displeased again.

After ten days of residence, Bian Que saw him again and said, "Your illness is in the intestines and stomach. If it is not treated, it will get worse." Hou Huan did not respond.

Bian Que came out.

Marquis Huan was displeased again.

After staying for ten days, Bian Que looked at Huanhou and then left, so Huanhou sent someone to ask about it.

Bian Que said: "The disease is in the interstitium, where the soup and iron can reach; in the skin, where the needle and stone can reach; in the intestines and stomach, where the fire Qi can reach; in the bone marrow, where the command of life belongs, there is nothing you can do. Now here we are.

Bone marrow, I have no invitation." After five days of residence, Marquis Huan suffered from body pain, so he ordered Bian Que to flee from the Qin Dynasty.

Marquis Huan then died.

Therefore, a good doctor treats diseases by attacking the internal organs.

These are all competing for the small ones.

The misfortunes and blessings of husband's affairs are also unreasonable, so the saint is not engaged in it.

King Zhuang of Chu had been in power for three years, but he had no orders and no political action.

The right Sima sat down and said to Wang Yin: "There is a bird that has stopped in Fu in the south. It has been without wings for three years. It has not flown or screamed, and it has been silent. Why is it called this?" The king said, "It has been without wings for three years, and it will grow wings."

If it doesn't fly or sing, it will be observed by the people. Even if it doesn't fly, it will fly to the sky;

Ten of them were deposed, nine were raised, five ministers were executed, six were promoted, and the country was governed.

He raised his troops to defeat Qi, defeated Xuzhou, defeated Jin in Heyong, united the princes in Song, and then dominated the world.

King Zhuang does not do small harm, so he has a great reputation; he does not show signs of fleas, so he has great merits.

Therefore, it is said: "Great things come late, and great music can be heard loudly." In ancient times, people's eyes were shorter than self-seeing, so they used mirrors to observe their faces; wisdom was shorter than self-knowledge, so they used the Tao to correct themselves.

There is no sin in the mirror, no evil in the Tao.

If your eyes lose the mirror, you will not be able to straighten your eyebrows; if your body loses the way, you will not be able to understand and confuse.

I heard that in ancient times Bian Que cured his illness by stabbing his bones with a knife; that a saint saved his country from danger by brushing his ears with loyalty.

It bites the bones, so a small pain is in the body, and long-lasting benefits are in the body; it brushes the ears, so a small rebellion is in the heart, and long-lasting happiness is in the country.

Therefore, a person who is seriously ill can benefit from enduring pain, and a strong and determined king can brush his ears with blessings.

If you endure the pain, Bian Que will be skillful; if you brush your ears, Zixu will not lose.

The art of longevity and safety.

If you don't bear the pain when you are sick, you will lose the skill of Bian Que; if you don't brush your ears when you are in danger, you will lose the will of a saint.

In this way, long profits will not fall far away, and fame will not be established soon.

The master's Tao is loyal to the law, and the law is loyal, so he treats it when he sees it, and thinks about it when he gets rid of it.

Yao did not make a pact with glue and paint, but he was virtuous in the current world, and Shun did not place a cone in the future, and he was virtuous in the future.

Those who can establish the Tao in the past and value virtue in all ages are called Mingzhu.

The legislation of the sage king is such that its rewards are enough to encourage good deeds, its power is enough to defeat violence, and its preparations are enough to complete the law.
