| 3 | 知北游: | 啮缺问道乎被衣，被衣曰：“若正汝形，一汝视，天和将至；摄汝知，一汝度，神将来舍。德将为汝美，道将为汝居，汝瞳焉如新出之犊而无求其故！”言未卒，啮缺睡寐。被衣大说，行歌而去之，曰：“形若槁骸，心若死灰，真其实知，不以故自持。媒媒晦晦，无心而不可与谋。彼何人哉！” |
| Knowledge Rambling in the...: |
Nie Que asked about the Dao from Bei-yi, who replied, 'If you keep your body as it should be, and look only at the one thing, the Harmony of Heaven will come to you. Call in your knowledge, and make your measures uniform, and the spiritual (belonging to you) will come and lodge with you; the Attributes (of the Dao) will be your beauty, and the Dao (itself) will be your dwelling-place. You will have the simple look of a new-born calf, and will not seek to know the cause (of your being what you are).' Bei-yi had not finished these words when the other dozed off into a sleep. Bei-yi was greatly pleased, and walked away, singing as he went, 'Like stump of rotten tree his frame, Like lime when slaked his mind became. Real is his wisdom, solid, true, Nor cares what's hidden to pursue. 0 dim and dark his aimless mind! No one from him can counsel find. What sort of man is he?' |
