Tao Te Ching Chapter 35

 

Hold the Great Symbol,

And all the world follows.

Follows without meeting harm,

(And lives in) health, peace, commonwealth.

 

Offer good things to eat

And the wayfarer stays.

But Tao is mild to the taste.

Looked at, it cannot be seen;

Listened to, it cannot be heard;

Applied, its supply never fails.
