When I told my friend, Monica, about a conversation I had with the Voice, she looked at me disbelievingly and asked: “Did the Voice actually tell you that he would serve as a replacement for your deceased …
含德之厚,比於赤子。 蜂蠆虺蛇不螫,猛獸不據,攫鳥不搏。 骨弱筋柔而握固。 未知牝牡之合而全作,精之至也。 終日號而不嗄,和之至也。 知和曰常,知常曰明,益生曰祥。 心使氣曰強。物壯則老,謂之不道,不道早已。 He who contains virtue(Te) in abundance resembles a newborn child. Wasps and serpents don’t sting him, and beasts don’t claw at him, and birds of prey don’t attack them. His bones are tender, and his tendons are soft, and yet his grip is firm. He hasn’t known the …
治大國若烹小鮮。 以道蒞天下,其鬼不神;非其鬼不神,其神不傷人; 非其神不傷人,聖人亦不傷人。 夫兩不相傷,故德交歸焉。 Rule a big country as you would fry small fish. Who rules the world in accord with Tao Shall find that the spirits lose their power.

In controlling your vital force to achieve gentleness, Can you become like the new-born child? In cleansing and purifying your Mystic vision, Can you strive after perfection? In loving the people and governing the kingdom, …
道者萬物之奧。 善人之寶,不善人之所保。 美言可以市,尊行可以加人。 人之不善,何棄之有? 故立天子,置三公,雖有拱璧以先駟馬,不如坐進此道。 古之所以貴此道者何? 不曰:以求得,有罪以免耶?故為天下貴。 Tao is the mysterious secret of the universe, The good man’s treasure, And the bad man’s refuge. Beautiful saying can be sold at the market, Noble conduct can be presented as a gift. Though there be bad people, Why reject them? Therefore on the crowning of an emperor, …
