(Extension of the Three Thousand Avenues) Chapter 8 The Tao
..........................................................................................
Tao generates one, two, three and all things
All the world is of the same nature. Nature is good, and all things are born. The nature of the earth is not only good, but also healthy. The sage understands the music and rules of the world, and practices the law of the world. Therefore, all things receive great achievements and good deeds. Gods and immortal help heaven and earth, but they dare not to be light. They respect, value, receive and protect.
The way can be said, not the way. The name can be named, not the name. The beginning of the unknown world; the mother of all things.
It is better to hold the surplus than to have it; it is better not to keep the sharp. There are plenty of gold and jade in the hall, so you can't guard it. If you are rich and proud, you will leave your own fault. If you can get away with it, the way of heaven will be the same.
There is a mixture of things, born naturally. It's lonely, independent and unchangeable. It can be the mother of heaven and earth. I don't know its name. A strong word is Tao, and a strong word is da. The greater the time, the greater the distance, the greater the opposition.
So the road is big, the sky is big, the earth is big, and the people are big. There are four regions, but one is human settlements.
Human law and earth, earth law and heaven, heaven law and Tao law and nature.
(Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, three begets all things, all the world is the same sex, nature is good, all things are born, all are non-existent.) The nature of the earth is good, and all things are nourished. The sage Sile is the world and the law is the world, so all things are subject to his merits. The gods and immortals help the heavens and the earth and do not dare to take it lightly, respect it, attach it to it, receive it, and bless it. The Tao is very good, and it is very good. The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. The beginning of the nameless heaven and earth, the mother of all things. Holding on to the profit is not as good as it is; The hall is full of gold and jade, and Mo can keep it, and he is rich and arrogant, and he is to blame. After retiring, the way of heaven is also. There is a mixture of things, born from nature. Lonely, independent and unchanging, circumferential and not dying, can be the mother of heaven and earth. I don't know its name, the strong word is called the way, and the strong name is big. The big is gone, the past is far away, and the far is reversed. Therefore, the road is big, the sky is big, the earth is big, and the people are big. There are four major domains, and people live in one of them. Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law, and the Tao is the nature. )
