  Value great suffering as you would 'keeping' your own body。

  What is the meaning of 揊avor and disgrace seem like a surprise?
  Favor 'eventually' declines。
  Getting it is like a surprise。
  Losing it is like a surprise。
  This is the meaning of 揊avor and disgrace seem like a surprise。?br》 
  What is the meaning of
  揤alue great suffering as you would 'keeping' you own body?
  Our place; according to those who have great suffering;
  Is our having a body。

  When we lack bodies
  What suffering do we have?

  Therefore; value the 搒elf?that抯 considered as being the world
  As though you are able to be entrusted with the world。
  Love the 搒elf?that抯 considered as being the world
  As though you are able to rely on the world。

  Inspect it and you will not see it。
  Its name is said to be 揟he Obscure。?br》 Listen for it and you will not hear it。
  Its name is said to be 揃ecoming Silent。?br》 Roll it around in your hands and you will not obtain it。
  Its name is said to be 揟he Subtle。?br》 
  Those who are not able to achieve these three ask?br》 This is the reason they are blended and handled as one:

  At its ascending; not bright。
  At its descending; not dark。
  The measure of measure; it cannot be named。
  Repeatedly returning to 搉o…thing…ness?br》 It is called 揟he Form of No…Form?br》 揟he Shape of No…thing…ness。?br》 
  It is called
  揟he Indistinct?br》 揟he Unclear?br》 
  Greet it and you will not see its face。
  Follow it and you will not see its back。

  Hold to the Tao of the Ancients
  In order to tame the existence of present times。

  One can know the ancient beginning。
  It is called the 揟ao Epoch。?br》
  15

  Those of old who were good at being warriors
  Were subtly; wonderfully; mystically in communication
  With profundities that can抰 be fathomed。
  Precisely because 'the ancient warriors' can抰 be fathomed
  Is the reason one is forced to take them by appearances:

  Cautious?as if in winter; crossing a stream
  Strategizing?as if they feared their own four neighbors。
  Dignified?they seemed forgiving。
  Scattered?like ice floes about to break apart。
  Honest?they seemed plain and simple。
  Free from worries and petty ideas?they seemed 'as open' as a valley。
  'Apparently' acting without a plan?they seemed muddled。
  Calm?they seemed like the ocean。
  Like wind in the mountains?they seemed to be without stagnation。

  Who can; in muddiness; use the gradual purification of stillness?
  Who can; in serenity; use the gradual arising of movement?

  They who hold to this Tao do not desire to overflow。
  It抯 only by not overflowing

  That one can therefore be shielded
  And newly made。

  16

  Bring about emptiness to the extreme。
  Guard true stillness。
  The ten…thousand things rise together。
  I therefore observe their return:

  Those ten…thousand plants梕ach plant梤eturns
  Going back to its root。
  Going back to the root is said to be stillness。
  This is called returning to life。
  Returning to life is called the Constant。
  Understanding the Constant is called clarity。

  Not understanding the Constant:
  Reckless actions梞isfortune。

  Understanding the Constant; forgive。
  Forgive; then be unbiased。
  Be unbiased; then be whole。
  Be whole; then be Heaven。
  Be Heaven; then be Tao。
  Be Tao; then be eternal。

  Not having a body; there is no danger。

  17

  The highest superiors?br》 People below them 'merely' know they have them。
  The next highest梡eople below them love and praise them。
  The next highest梡eople below them fear them。
  The next highest梡eople below them insult them。

  Where trust is insufficient
  There is distrust。

  So gentle; 'the sage' values their words。
  'And so when' their achievements are completed
  And their work is successful
  The hundred clans all proclaim
  揥e are naturally like this!?br》
  18

  When the great Tao is abandoned
  There exists humaneness and righteousness。
  When intelligence and wit go forth
  There exists greatness and deception。
  When the six familial relationships are not in harmony
  There exists obedience and charity。
  When kingdoms and households are in darkness and chaos
  There exists loyalty and subjugation。

  19

  Get rid of sagacity; abandon wisdom:
  The people benefit a hundred…fold。
  Get rid of humanitarianism; abandon righteousness:
  The people recover filial piety and motherly love。
  Get rid of cleverness; abandon profit:
  Robbers and thieves do not exist。

  Those who 'understand' these three things
  Therefore take 'mere' civility to be insufficient。

  Therefore; this directive has a place it belongs to:

  See the plain。
  Embrace simplicity。
  Diminish selfishness。
  Desire little。

  20

  Get rid of erudition; do not fret。
  The saying of 搚es?or 搃ndubitably敆
  They are removed from each other by how much?
  In what way?

  The imparting of 揼ood?or 揺vil敆
  In what way do they seem to differ from each other?

  But that which the people fear
  Is not suited to be disrespected。

  Wild indeed; those not yet centered!
  The masses of people are boisterous and exuberant
  As if enjoying the greatest sacrificial feast。
  As if in Spring; climbing onto the lookouts。
  I alone am tranquil and quiet indeed; not yet showing these signs?br》 Like an infant babying those who are not yet children。

  Weary; weary; as if no place to belong to!
  The masses of people all have surplus
  And I alone seem to be missing something。

  Mine is the heart of a fool; besides!

  Turbid and chaotic indeed; the ordinary people; bright and eminent!
  I alone am muddled and confused。
  Ordinary people study; survey; and scrutinize。
  I alone am bored and uninterested。
  The masses of people all have instrumentality
  But I alone am both ignorant and lowly。
  I alone differ from people

  And value the nourishing Mother。

  21

  The forming of exceeding virtue?br》 Only the Tao indeed manages 'to do'。
  The functioning 搒ubstance?of the Tao is only indistinct; only vague。
  So vague! So indistinct! Within it exists shape。
  So indistinct! So vague! Within it exists the physical world。
  So obscure! So profound! Within it exists essence。

  Its essence is exceedingly real?br》 Within it exists the evidence 'for this'。

  From ancient times even unto the present day
  Its name has not departed。
  Thereby inspect the many beginnings。
  How do I thereby know the form of the many beginnings?

  With this。

  22

  Crookedness follows perfection。
  Bending follows straightness。
  Emptiness follows fullness。
  Brokenness follows newness。
  Lack follows gain。
  Excess follows confusion。

  Therefore; the sages embrace the One
  Becoming examples for the world:

  They do not show themselves; and so are radiant。
  Do not affir
