#55 "Inner Strength and Harmony"
One who has inner strength is like a baby boy,
Unspoiled, flexible, and empty with no judgment.
Bees, wild beasts, birds of prey cannot harm him.
With no knowledge of the world
His penis can stand erect,
He has no shame or questions of why.
Caught in manifestation, the myriad scream for a time, he hardly notices.
His harmony is so aligned he can scream forever without getting horse.
He is powered by his harmony, and thus all fear is kept at bay.
The Master never speaks of possessing anything, life is the blessing.
Those who pursue power and excitement find themselves confused,
They allow their emotions to guide them, and they become exhausted.
It is not from Tao, and whatever is not from Tao arrives dead.
#57 "Laws are All in the Heart"
Tao governs all things by discarding objectives.
Never possessing or interfering,
All things only need abide the law in their heart,
In this way they are free from desire.
When Tao is ignored, objectives rule the day.
Rules are created that make people expend energy to get around them.
Intelligence is praised and rewarded while products become more demonic and intrusive.
Weapons are paraded, fear spreads, and the hearts of all things close off.
As litigation becomes a national focus politicians and criminals multiply.
The Master needn't engage these traps
She is quiet, and people follow their light
She is peaceful, and people are compelled to be honest
She does nothing, and all things flourish together.
Have no desire and all things will achieve primal existence.
#78 "Living in a Damaged State"
Air and water are the softest things we know,
Causing no damage to those that live within them
Yet both erode the hard or rigid in their path.
The soft and flexible will always overcome.
While the hard and rigid eventually collapse.
Ordinary men are well aware of this
However, they prefer conspicuous outcomes.
Thus they align with rigid hardness,
It stands firm for a time, but does not last.
Therefore, the Master teaches us that
We can live amongst things that damage
Without being damaged by them.
