Daily Words Of Wisdom To Inspire Your Best Life

Tao Te Ching Verse Five: Between Heaven and Earth

Heaven and earth are impartial;
they see the 10,000 things as straw dogs. The sage is not sentimental;
he treats all his people as straw dogs.

The sage is like heaven and earth:
To him none are especially dear,
nor is there anyone he disfavors.
He gives and gives, without condition,
offering his treasures to everyone.

Between heaven and earth
is a space like a bellows;
empty and inexhaustible,
the more it is used, the more it produces.

Hold on to the center.
Man was made to sit quietly and find
the truth within.

- Tao Te Ching Verse Five by Lao Tsu
