It is easy to act wisely
surrounded by wisdom,
yet it is difficult to maintain wisdom among fools.

When one acts for nobody
others will come
explaining how to help themselves.

Mirror like gaze
opposes nothing,

revealing without words.

Appointed the highest;
dwells in the lowest,

embracing everything in no body,
as though death did not affect.

The highest honor is given
when it is never used,

never spent and never grasped.
