道德經 第四十八章

 

为学日益，为道日损，损之又损，以至于无为。无为而无不为，取天下常以无事；及其有事，不足以取天下。

 

Seeking external learning, the desire increases each passing day,

Seeking internal Tao learning, desire decreases day after day.

Let it decrease till it arrives at non-impulsive action,

In non-impulsive action, all follow their own course.

The world is on its own track without desire.

If desire is exerted, the world shatters into tatters.
