- Contents
- The transcendental Tao -- The granaries are empty -- With no desire -- Armed with sharp weapons -- The supreme good is like water -- Colors blind your eyes -- Though deep and dark, there is essence -- While the fields are sterile -- And yet people prefer crooked paths -- She lets go so nothing is lost -- Being comes from non-being -- Returning is the movement of the Tao.
