I am currently reading the Tao Te Ching will be posting one verse per week for the rest of the year or until I am through all of them.
- Verse 2
- When People see somethings as beautiful,
- other things become ugly.
- When people see somethings as good,
- other things become bad
- Being and non-being create each other.
- Difficult and easy support each other.
- Long and short define each other.
- High and low depend on each other.
- Before and after follow each other.
- Therefore the Master
- acts without doing anything.
- Things arise and she lets them come,
- things disappear and she lets them go.
- She has but doesn't possess,
- acts but doesn't expect.
- When her work is done, she forgets it.
- That is why it lasts forever.
