The highest truth
cannot be put into words.
Therefore the greatest teacher has
nothing to say. He simply gives
himself in service, and
never worries.

In
governing people
and serving heaven, there
is nothing better than moderation.
To be moderate is to follow Tao without straying.
To follow Tao without straying is to become filled with
good energy. To be filled with good energy is to
overcome all things. To overcome all things
is to know that all things are possible.
She who knows that all things are
possible is fit to govern
people.
Because
she is one with the mother,
her roots go deep, her foundation
stands firm, her life lasts
long, her vision
endures.

They say there is
a pure land where everything
is only mind, and that there’s a buddha of light
in your own body. Once that buddha of light appears,
mountains, rivers, earth, grass, trees, and forests
suddenly glow with a great light.
To see this,
you have to look inside
your own heart. Then what should
you be looking out for? When you are looking
for something that is only mind, what kind of special
features would it have? When you are looking for
the buddha of infinite light in your own body,
how would you recognize it?
Inside your own heart.
Trees shine with a great light.
Please
let me remind you,
who study the inconceivable:
Your time is running fast.
Don’t ignore
it.
Act by
not acting,
accomplish by not
straining, understand
by not knowing. Regard the
humble as exalted and the exalted
as humble. Remedy injury
with tranquil
repair.
Meet
the difficult while
it is still easy; cross the
universe one step at a time.
Because the sage doesn’t try
anything too big, she’s able
to accomplish big
things.
Those
who commit lightly
seldom come through.
Those who think everything
is easy will find everything hard.
The sage understands that
everything is difficult, and
thus in the end has no
difficulties.
