Background
A description of the experience
Tao Teh Ching - Lao Tzu
Does anyone want to take the world and do what he wants with it?
I do not see how he can succeed
The world is a sacred vessel, which must not be tampered with or grabbed after
To tamper with it is to spoil it, and to grasp it is to lose it.
In fact, for all things there is a time for going ahead and a time for following behind
A time for slow breathing and a time for fast breathing
A time to grow in strength and a time to decay
A time to be up and a time to be down
Therefore, the sage avoids all extremes, excesses and extravagances
