34 | 道德經: | 大道汎兮,其可左右。萬物恃之而生而不辭,功成不名有。衣養萬物而不為主,常無欲,可名於小;萬物歸焉,而不為主,可名為大。以其終不自為大,故能成其大。 |
Dao De Jing: |
(The task of achievement) All-pervading is the Great Dao! It may be found on the left hand and on the right. All things depend on it for their production, which it gives to them, not one refusing obedience to it. When its work is accomplished, it does not claim the name of having done it. It clothes all things as with a garment, and makes no assumption of being their lord; - it may be named in the smallest things. All things return (to their root and disappear), and do not know that it is it which presides over their doing so; - it may be named in the greatest things. Hence the sage is able (in the same way) to accomplish his great achievements. It is through his not making himself great that he can accomplish them. | |
63 | 道德經: | 為無為,事無事,味無味。大小多少,報怨以德。圖難於其易,為大於其細;天下難事,必作於易,天下大事,必作於細。是以聖人終不為大,故能成其大。夫輕諾必寡信,多易必多難。是以聖人猶難之,故終無難矣。 |
Dao De Jing: |
(Thinking in the beginning) (It is the way of the Dao) to act without (thinking of) acting; to conduct affairs without (feeling the) trouble of them; to taste without discerning any flavour; to consider what is small as great, and a few as many; and to recompense injury with kindness. (The master of it) anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things. He who lightly promises is sure to keep but little faith; he who is continually thinking things easy is sure to find them difficult. Therefore the sage sees difficulty even in what seems easy, and so never has any difficulties. |

6 | 自然: | 老子曰:以道治天下,非易人性也,因其所有而循暢之,故因即大,作即小。古之瀆水者,因水之流也,生稼者,因地之宜也,征伐者,因民之欲也,能因則無敵於天下矣。物必有自然而人事有治也,故先王之制法,因民之性而為之節文,無其性,不可使順教,無其資,不可使遵道。人之性有仁義之資,其非聖人為之法度,不可使向方,因其所惡以禁姦,故刑罰不用,威行如神,因其性即天下聽從,怫其性即法度張而不用。道德者,則功名之本也,民之所懷也,懷之則功名立。古之善為君者法江海,江海無為以成其大,洼下以成其廣,故能長久,為天下谿谷,其德乃足,無為能取百川,不求故能得,不行故能至,是以取天下而無事。不自奉故富,不自見故明,不自矜故長,處不肖之地,故為天下王,不爭故莫能與之爭,終不為大故能成其大,江海近於道,故能長久,與天地相保。公正脩道,即功成不有,不有即強固,強固而不以暴人,道深即德深,德深即功名遂成,此謂玄德深矣!遠矣!其與物反矣!天下有始,莫知其理,唯聖人能知所以,非雄非雌,非牝非牡,生而不死,天地以成,陰陽以形,萬物以生。故陰與陽,有員有方,有短有長,有存有亡,道為之命,幽沉而光事,於心甚微,於道甚當,死生同理,萬物變化,合於一道。簡生忘死,何往不壽,去事與言,慎無為也。守道周密,於物不宰,至微無形,天地之始,萬物同於道而殊形,至微無物,故能周恤,至大無外,故為萬物蓋,至細無內,故為萬物貴。道之存生,德之安形,至道之度,去好去惡,無有知故,易意和心,無以道迕。夫天地專而為一,分而為二,交而合之,上下不失,專而為一,分而為五,反而合之,必中規矩。夫道至親不可疏,至近不可遠,求之近者,往而復反。 |

1 | 任成: | 大道氾兮,言道氾氾,若浮若沉,若有若無,視之不見,說之難殊。其可左右。道可左可右,無所不宜。萬物恃之而生,恃,待也。萬物皆待道而生。而不辭,道不辭謝而逆止也。功成不名有,有道不名其有功也。愛養萬物而不為主。道雖愛養萬物,不如人主有所收取。常無欲,可名於小。道匿德藏名,怕然無為,似若微小也。萬物歸焉而不為主,萬物皆歸道受氣,道非如人主有所禁止也。可名為大。萬物橫來橫去,使名自在,故可名於大也。是以聖人終不為大,聖人法道匿德藏名,不為滿大。故能成其大。聖人以身師導,不言而化,萬事修治,故能成其大。 |

1 | 恩始: | 為無為,因成循故,無所造作。事無事,預有備,除煩省事也。味無味。深思遠慮,味道意也。大小多少,陳其戒令也。欲大反小,欲多反少,自然之道也。報怨以德。脩道行善,絕禍於未生也。圖難於其易,欲圖難事,當於易時,未及成也。為大於其細。欲為大事,必作於小,禍亂從小來也。天下難事必作於易,天下大事必作於細。從易生難,從細生著。是以聖人終不為大,故能成其大。處謙虛,天下共歸之也。夫輕諾必寡信,不重言也。多易必多難。不慎患也。是以聖人猶難之,聖人動作舉事,猶進退,重難之,欲塞其源也。故終無難矣。聖人終生無患難之事,猶避害深也 |
