Chapter 269: Sungkyunkwan

I will want to take (1) the world and do (2), I see that it has no choice but (3). The artifact of the world (4), can not be done, can not be held (5). Those who do it lose, and those who hold it lose. It is the saint's inaction (6), so there is no defeat, so there is no loss. Husband (7) thing (8) or line or follow (9), or look or blow (10), or strong or bad (11), or carry or 隳 (12). It is a saint to go to even more, to luxury, to Thailand (13).

[Translation]

If he wants to rule the world, but he has to use coercive methods, I don't think he can achieve his goal. The people of the world are sacred, and they cannot rule by force against their will and nature, otherwise they cannot rule the world by force, and they cannot rule by force against their will and nature, otherwise they will surely fail to rule the world by force, and if they control the world by force, they will definitely lose the world. Therefore, the saint does not act recklessly, so he will not fail, and if he does not control, he will not be abandoned. People in the world have different temperaments, some move forward and some follow, some boast and some blow urgently, some are strong, some win and some are weak, some live in peace, and some are in danger. Therefore, the saints have to get rid of the extreme, extravagant, excessive measures.

[Quote]

On weekdays, it can be regarded as Lao Tzu's theory of the rule of "non-action", and the warning of the "promising" government, that is, "promising" will inevitably lead to failure, and "promising" is to use one's own subjective will to do things that violate objective laws, or to take the world as one's own. In fact, the "inaction" mentioned by Lao Tzu is not inaction, nor is it powerlessness in the face of objective reality. He said here that if you do something by force or rule the people by violence, you will be self-defeating, and that no matter how people or things in the world have their own dispositions, and the differences and particularities between them exist objectively, and we should not impose our own ideas and wills on others and adopt certain coercive measures. The ideal ruler is often able to follow nature, not to be coercive, not demanding, to guide according to the situation, and to follow the objective laws.

[Commentary]

In the Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu talks about the rule of "non-action" in many places. He vigorously propagated the political idea of "wu wei", advocated that everything should conform to nature and materiality, and hoped that those rulers who had attained the "Tao" would govern the country and the people, and should not go to extremes in doing anything, not have extravagant hopes, and not be overjoyed.

In the Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu talks about the rule of "non-action" in many places. He vigorously propagated the political idea of "Wu Wei", advocated that everything should conform to nature and materiality, and hoped that those rulers who had attained the "Dao" would govern the country and the people, and do not go to extremes in doing anything, do not have extravagant hopes, and do not rejoice in their achievements 6666666666666666666666666 (to be continued). )
