| 1 | 虛無: | 希言自然。希言者，謂愛言也。愛言者，自然之道。故飄風不終朝，驟雨不終日。飄風，疾風也。驟雨，暴雨也。言疾不能長，暴不能久也。孰為此者？天地。孰，誰也。誰為此飄風暴雨者乎？天地所為。天地尚不能久，不能終於朝暮也。而況於人乎？天地至神合為飄風暴雨，尚不能使終朝至暮，何況人欲為暴卒乎。故從事於道者，從，為也。人為事當如道安靜，不當如飄風驟雨也。道者同於道，道者，謂好道人也。同於道者，所謂與道同也。德者同於德，德者，謂好德之人也。同於德者，所謂與德同也。失者同於失。失，謂任己而失人也。同於失者，所謂與失同也。同於道者，道亦樂得之。與道同者，道亦樂得之也。同於德者，德亦樂得之，與德同者，德亦樂得之也。同於失者，失亦樂得之。與失同者，失亦樂失之也。信不足焉，君信不足於下，下則應君以不信也。有不信焉。此言物類相歸，同聲相應，同氣相求。雲從龍，風從虎，水流濕，火就燥，自然之類也。 |
| Few words are natural. "Xiyan" means "to love speech." To love speech is the way of nature. Therefore, a violent wind does not last through the morning, and a sudden rain does not last through the day. "Piaofeng" means a strong wind. "Souru," means heavy rain. This means that what is intense cannot last long, and what is violent cannot endure for a long time. Who does this? Heaven and Earth. "Shu" means "who." Who is the one who causes this violent wind and heavy rain? It is what Heaven and Earth do. Heaven and Earth still cannot last long; cannot last until morning or evening. How much less can human beings do so? Heaven and Earth, being the most divine, combine to create violent winds and heavy rains, yet they still cannot make them last from morning until evening. How much less can people achieve sudden and violent results? Therefore, those who act in accordance with the Dao, "Cong," means "to do." Human actions should be like the quietness of the Dao and not like violent winds or sudden rains. Those who follow the Dao are united with it; "Daozhe," means "those who love the Dao." One who is united with the Dao is said to be in harmony with the Dao. Those who possess virtue are united with virtue; "Dezhe," means "those who love virtue." One who is united with virtue is said to be in harmony with virtue. Those who lose are united with loss. "Shi" means to rely on oneself and thus lose others. One who is united with loss is said to be in harmony with loss. Those who are united with the Dao, the Dao also delights in receiving them. One who is in harmony with the Dao, the Dao will also be pleased to receive him. Those who are united with virtue, virtue also delights in receiving them; One who is in harmony with virtue, virtue will also be pleased to receive them. Those who are united with loss, loss also delights in receiving them. One who is in harmony with loss, loss will also be pleased to take it away. When trust is insufficient, the ruler's trust is not sufficient for the people; then the people will respond to the ruler with distrust. There is a lack of faith. This means that things naturally return to their kind, like sounds respond to each other, and similar energies seek one another. Clouds follow the dragon, winds follow the tiger, water flows downward, fire moves toward dryness; these are all examples of natural kinds. |
