TaoTeChing, LaoTzu Day 7

Heaven is long,
Earth is enduring.
Long and enduring
Because they do not exist for themselves.
Therefore the Sage Steps back, but in always in front, Stays outside, but is always within.
No self-interest?

天長地久。
天地之所以能長且久者,以其不自生,故能長生。

是以聖人後其身而身先,外其身而身存。
非以其無私邪?故能成其私

TaoTeChing, LaoTzu Day 6

The valley spirit never dies.Tibetan tea
It is called the Mysterious Female.
The entrance to the Mysterious Female
is called the root of Heaven and Earth,
Endless flow
Of inexhaustible energy.
谷神不死是谓玄牝。

玄牝之门是谓天地根。

绵绵若存,用之不勤。

Tao Te Ching, Lao-Tzu Day 5

Heaven and Earth are not kind.
The ten thousand things are straw dogs to them.
Sages are not kind:TaoTeChing Day 5 small
People are straw to them.
Yet Heaven and Earth
And all the space between
Are like bellows:
Empty but inexhaustible,
Always producing more.
Long winded speech is exhausting. Better to stay cantered.

天地不仁,以萬物為芻狗; 聖人不仁,以百姓為芻狗。

天地之間,其猶橐籥乎!

虛而不屈、動而愈出, 多言數窮,不如守中。

TaoTeChing, Lao-Tzu Day 4

Tao is empty– Its use never exhausted.
Bottomless– The origin of all things.
White Poeny (300*300)
It blunts sharp edges, Untied knots, Soften glare, Becomes one with the dusty world.
Deeply subsistent–
I don’t know whose child it is.
It’s older than the ancestor.

道冲,而用之或不盈。

渊兮,似万物之宗。

挫其锐,解其纷,和其光,同其尘。湛兮,似或存。

吾不知谁之子,象帝之先。

Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu Day 3


Pu Shang hsien
Don’t glorify heroes,
And people will not content.

Don’t treasure rare objects,IMG_4817
And no one will steal.
Don’t display what people desire,
And their hearts will not be disturbed.
Therefore,
The sage rules By emptying hearts and filling bellies, By weakening ambitions and strengthening bones;
Leads people Away from knowing and wanting;
Deters those who know too much From going to far;
Practices non-action And the nature order is not disturbed.
不尚賢。
