Your inner power
makes influence possible.
There is danger in ambition and
agenda-making. The truly beneficial

naturally from your
attention to what
is correct.

Patch-robed monks
practice thoroughly without carrying
a single thread. Open-mindedly sparkling and pure,
they are like a mirror reflecting a mirror, with
nothing regarded as outside, without
capacity for accumulating
dust.
All obstructions
of defilements and karmas of worry
and trouble, are in origin, empty. All causes and
effects are dreams and illusions. The great Way is empty
and vast. It is beyond thought and deliberation.
You, at this instant, have this dharma
and are without lack.
Tao gives
life to all beings.
Nature nourishes them.
Fellow creatures shape them.
Circumstances complete them.
Everything in existence respects tao and
honors nature — not by decree,
but spontaneously.
Tao gives life to all beings.
Nature watches over them, develops them,
shelters them, nurses them, grows them, ripens
them, completes them, buries them,
and returns them.
Giving birth,
nourishing life, shaping things
without possessing them, serving without
expectation of reward, leading without dominating:
These are the profound virtues of nature,
and of nature’s best beings.

Plant yourself
firmly in the Tao and
you won’t ever be uprooted.
Embrace Tao firmly and you won’t
ever be separated from it. Your
children will thrive, and
your children’s
children.

and goodness will be genuine.
Cultivate it in your family, and goodness
will flourish. Cultivate it in your community,
and goodness will grow and multiply.
Cultivate it in your country, and
goodness will be abundant.
Cultivate it in the world,
and goodness will be
everywhere.
How do I know
the world works like this?
By watching.
