《第六十七章》[View] [Edit] [History]

1 (河上公注本作三宝章,彭本同)
2 天下皆谓我大,似不肖。夫惟大,故似不肖。若肖,久矣其细也夫!我有三宝,持而宝之。一曰慈,二曰俭,三曰不敢为天下先。慈故能勇,俭故能广,不敢为天下先,故能成器长。今舍慈且勇,舍俭而广,舍其后且先,死矣。夫慈以战则胜,以守则固。天将救之,以慈卫之。
3 道本无方无体,以大称之。是必有方体可拟,反不肖其大也。惟大莫名其大,故不肖人之所谓大。若肖人之所谓大,则大者而亦小也。故曰「久矣其细」也。太上以三宝为言,亦大之散见者耳。一曰慈,慈必果于仁,故能勇。二曰俭,俭必善于积,故能广。三曰不敢为天下先,不敢先则大器晚成,故能成器长也。然而舍慈为勇,必有忍心。舍俭为广,必有贪心,舍后为先,必有争心。皆取死之道也。但以一、二、三分陈三宝,则一之为贵,故举慈以毕言之。慈以战则胜,见义必为也。以守则固,存仁必坚也。救之者,以指人言。天将救人,亦必以慈卫人也。慈之为道大矣哉!
