Tao Te Ching (Lao Tsu) Fifty six

 


Fifty six -

Those who know do not talk.

Those who talk do not know.


Keep your mouth closed.

Guard your senses.

Temper your sharpness.

Simplify your problems.

Mask your brightness.

Be at one with the dust of the earth.

This is primal union.


He who has achieved this state

Is unconcerned with friends and ennemies,

With good and harm, with honor and disgrace.

This therefore is the highest state of man.
