The sage had no mind of his own
He is aware of the needs of others

The sage is shy and humble

All things arise from Tao
They are nourished by nature

The beginning of the universe
Is the mother of all things

Keep your mouth shut
Guard the senses

Using the outer light
Return to insight

What is firmly established cannot be uprooted
Cultivate virtue in yourself

His bones are soft
His muscles weak
But his grip his strong

It is not wise to rush about

If too much energy is used
Exhaustion follows

Those who know do not talk
Those who talk do not know
