第十六章

致虚极，守静笃。
万物并作，吾以观复。
夫物芸芸，各复归其根。
归根曰静，是谓复命。
复命曰常，知常曰明。
不知常，妄作凶。
知常容，容乃公，
公乃王，王乃天，
天乃道，道乃久，没身不殆。

Chapter 16

Empty your mind of all thoughts.
Let your heart be at peace.
Watch the turmoil of beings,
but contemplate their return.

Each separate being in the universe
returns to the common source.
Returning to the source is serenity.

If you don't realize the source,
you stumble in confusion and sorrow.
When you realize where you come from,
you naturally become tolerant,
disinterested, amused,
kindhearted as a grandmother,
dignified as a king.
Immersed in the wonder of the Tao,
you can deal with whatever life brings you,
and when the death comes, you are ready.
