Nothing in the world is as soft and yielding as water. Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible, nothing can surpass it.
The soft overcomes the hard; the gentle overcomes the rigid. Everyone knows this is true, but few can put it into practice.
Therefore the Master remains serene in the midst of sorrow. Evil cannot enter a sincere heart. Because the Master competes with no one, no one can compete with the Master.
If nothing needs to be added, what have you been adding?
A new teaching, question, and dispatch surface here each day, rotating deterministically through the full corpus.
