71 | 道德經: | 知不知上;不知知病。夫唯病病,是以不病。聖人不病,以其病病,是以不病。 |
Dao De Jing: |
(The disease of knowing) To know and yet (think) we do not know is the highest (attainment); not to know (and yet think) we do know is a disease. It is simply by being pained at (the thought of) having this disease that we are preserved from it. The sage has not the disease. He knows the pain that would be inseparable from it, and therefore he does not have it. |
