Laozi

Life, Self, Ego

Laozi, Brian Browne Walker (1992). “Hua Hu Ching: Teachings of Lao Tzu”

What honor can there be without humility? What heights can be reached without being low? The pieces of a chariot are useless unless the work in accordance with the whole A man's life brings nothing unless he lives in accordance with the whole universe Playing one's part in accordance with the universe is true humility So whether you're a gem in the royal court or a stone on the common path If you accept your part with humility the glory of the universe will be yours

Laozi

Life, Humility, Men

(The Tao) is always present and always available. . . . If you are willing to be lived by it, you will see it everywhere, even in the most ordinary things.

Laozi

Life, Philosophy, Taoism

Laozi, Brian Browne Walker (1992). “Hua Hu Ching: Teachings of Lao Tzu”

The Master gives himself up to whatever the moment brings. He knows that he is going to die, and her has nothing left to hold on to: no illusions in his mind, no resistances in his body. He doesn't think about his actions; they flow from the core of his being. He holds nothing back from life; therefore he is ready for death, as a man is ready for sleep after a good day's work.

Laozi

Life, Sleep, Good Day

A good traveler leaves no tracks. Good speech lacks fault-finding.

Laozi

Life, Track, Speech

The way to use life is to do nothing through acting, The way to use life is to do everything through being.

Laozi

Because he is a living divinity, when he acts, the universe acts.

Laozi

Life, Divinity, Universe

Laozi, Brian Browne Walker (1992). “Hua Hu Ching: Teachings of Lao Tzu”

He who overcomes others has force; he who overcomes himself is strong.

Laozi

Inspirational, Life, Motivational

Laozi, D. C. Lau (1989). “Tao Te Ching”, p.51, Chinese University Press

Through return to simple living comes control of desires. In control of desires stillness is attained. In stillness the world is restored.

Laozi

Inspirational, Life, Spiritual

{The cleansing of spiritual contamination} is accomplished by offering one's talent, resources, and life to the world.

Laozi

Life, Spiritual, Offering

Thirty spokes meet in the hub. Where a wheel isn't is where it's useful. Hollowed out, clay makes a pot. Where the pots not is where it's useful. Cut doors and windows to make a room. Where the room isn't, there's room for you. So the profit in what is, is in the use of what isn't.

Laozi

Life, Cutting, Doors
