江海所以能為百谷王者，以其善下之，故能為百谷王。 是以聖人欲上民，必以言下之；欲先民，必以身後之。 是以聖人處上而民不重，處前而民不害。 是以天下樂推而不厭。以其不爭，故天下莫能與之爭。 Rivers and oceans can be the kings of a hundred valleys Because of their goodness in staying low So they can be the kings of a hundred valleys Thus if sages wish to be over people They must speak humbly to them If they wish to be in front of people …

Is There a Heaven?
One day, I met one of my friends that I hadn’t seen for a long time. He does not believe in God, but when he saw me, the first question he asked me was “Do you know whether there is a heaven or not?” I was surprised about this question, knowing his view on …
Tao Te Ching – Lao Tzu – Chapter 17
太上，下知有之； 其次，親而譽之； 其次，畏之；其次，侮之。 信不足，焉有不信焉。 悠兮，其貴言。 功成事遂，百姓皆謂我自然。 Of the best rulers The people (only) know that they existed; The next best, they love and praise; The next they fear; And the next they revile.

善建不拔，善抱者不脫，子孫以祭祀不輟。 修之於身，其德乃真；修之於家，其德乃餘；修之於鄉，其德乃長； 修之於國，其德乃豐；修之於天下，其德乃普。 故以身觀身，以家觀家，以鄉觀鄉，以國觀國，以天下觀天下。 吾何以知天下然哉？以此。 What is firmly established cannot be uprooted. What is firmly grasped cannot slip away. It will be honored from generation to generation. (The world’s physical things, built on the outside, will be unplugged, for since you can hold it in your hand, it will certainly be taken off.) However, Tao …

Tao Te Ching – Lao Tzu – Chapter 58
其政悶悶，其民淳淳；其政察察，其民缺缺。 禍兮福之所倚，福兮禍之所伏。孰知其極？ 其無正。正復為奇，善復為妖。 人之迷，其日固久。 是以聖人方而不割，廉而不劌，直而不肆，光而不燿。 When the country is ruled with a light hand, The people are simple. When the country is ruled with severity, The people are cunning. Happiness is rooted in misery. Misery lurks beneath happiness. Who knows what the future holds? There is no honesty. Honesty becomes dishonest. Goodness becomes witchcraft. Man’s …
