Doing Nothing
Under Heaven all can see beauty as beauty only because there is ugliness. All can know good as good only because there is evil. Therefore having and not having arise together. Difficult and easy complement each other. Long and short contrast with each other; High and low rest upon each other; Voice and sound harmonise each other; Front and back follow one another. Therefore the sage goes about doing nothing, teaching no talking. The ten thousand things rise and fall without cease, creating, yet not possessing, working, yet not taking credit, work is done, then forgotten. Therefore it lasts for ever. Lao Tsu, Tao Te Ching, chapter 72 Translated by Gia Fu Feng and Jane English Digital Bridges in Peace | Gandhi-King Season | Peace Cubes |
