1 守道:
治人,谓人君治理人民。事天,事,用也。当用天道,顺四时。莫若啬。啬,爱惜也。治国者当爱民财,不为奢泰。治身者当爱精气,不为放逸。夫为啬,是谓早服。早,先也。服,得也。夫独爱民财,爱精气,则能先得天道也。早服谓之重积德。先得天道,是谓重积得于己也。重积德则无不克,克,胜也。重积德于己,则无不胜。无不克则莫知其极,无不克胜,则莫知有知己德之穷极也。莫知其极可以有国。莫知己德者有极,则可以有社稷,为民致福。有国之母,可以长久。国身同也。母,道也。人能保身中之道,使精气不劳,五神不苦,则可以长久。是谓深根固蒂,人能以气为根,以精为蒂,如树根不深则拔,蒂不坚则落。言当深藏其气,固守其精,使无漏泄。长生久视之道。深根固蒂者,乃长生久视之道。
