My teachings are easy to understand and easy to put into practice. Yet your intellect will never grasp them and if you try to practice them you will fail. My teachings are older than the world. How can you grasp their meaning? If you want to know me look inside your heart.

Not knowing is true knowledge. Presuming to know is disease. First realize you are sick then you can move toward health. The Master is her own physician. She has healed herself of all knowing. Thus she is truly whole.

When they lose their sense of awe, people turn to religion. When they no longer trust themselves they begin to depend on authority. Therefore the Master steps back so people won't be confused. He teaches without
teaching so people will have nothing to learn.

The Tao is always at ease. Overcomes without competing, answers without speaking a word, arrives without being summoned, accomplishes without a plan. Its net covers the whole universe and though its meshes are wide it
doesn't let a thing slip through.

If you realize all things change you'll realize there is nothing to hold onto. If you aren't afraid of dying there is nothing you can't achieve. Trying to control the future is like trying to take the Master carpenter's place. When you handle the Master carpenter's tools, chances are you will cut your hand.

When taxes are too high, people go hungry. When the government is too intrusive people lose their spirit. Act for the peoples benefit. Trust
them. Leave them alone.
