In the past, the sky was clear, the earth was clear, the gods were clear, the gods were clear, the gods were rich, the bath was gained, and the king was right. Qi qí to the also, the stomach heaven has not been clear will be afraid of lotus, the stomach has not been willing to be afraid of hair, the stomach god has not been afraid of the rest, the stomach bath gǔ has not been the fear of thirst, the stomach marquis has not been noble to the high general fear of the jué. Therefore, it must be expensive and cheap-based, and it must be high and below-based. The husband is based on the prince's stomach, the widow and the widow. This is the same as the cheapness, not also!Therefore, the number is the same. It is therefore not desired: Lu Lu Ruoyu, 硌 luò硌若石.

In the distant past, there were species that were given unique ways that made them unique in nature. The heavens show their enlightened state with clarity, and the earth shows their enlightened state with tranquility. The gods, after attaining enlightenment, are marked by aura, and the valley that can give birth to life is remembered by fullness after attaining enlightenment. As for the princes, the result of their enlightenment is the correction of the state of governance. These are all because they each have a single method and have reached the extreme.

On the other hand, if the running heaven cuts off the Qing Dao, I am afraid that there will be a catastrophe of cracking;If the earth cuts off Ning's Dao Law, I am afraid that it will affect the continuation of life. If the spirit loses its spirituality, I am afraid that it will cease to function;If the valley loses its fullness, it may lead to thirst. And the Hou Wang, if they stop paying attention to the Dao Law and do not respect the Dao Law, I am afraid that they will encounter ups and downs.

Therefore, we must cherish and attach importance to the Tao, take lowliness as the foundation, and reach a certain height must be based on the inferiority. This is because the essence of the Tao is not acquired through a lofty attitude, but through humble and down-to-earth practice.

The correct thinking is that the Hou Wang's self-inner operation of the Tao should be to seek the widow and not the public, is this the essence of lowly pay?Not really!This is not to say that lowliness is a requirement for simplicity and simplicity. On the contrary, it is the essence of the Tao that has been obtained through countless times of churning alone and countless times of practice. This is like a piece of jade, although it looks ordinary on the outside, it contains incomparable value on the inside. It is also like a stone, although it is everywhere, its existence has its own unique meaning.

The true Tao is not in the outward magnificence, but in the inner substance. Just like negative thinking, it is not only its appearance like Baoyu, but universal and universal like stone. This is the true meaning of the Tao, and it is what we should pursue and cherish.
