There is a seal [1] before the beginning of Tao, a constant [2] before the beginning of speech, and a cup [3] for it. Please tell me: there are left, right, ethics, righteousness, division, debate, contention and contention, which are called eight virtues [4]. Outside Liuhe, saints exist no matter what; Within Liuhe, saints talk without discussing. In the Spring and Autumn Period, sages discussed without arguing. Therefore, those who are divided have no points; Those who argue, some don't argue. Yue: Why? The sage conceived it [6] and everyone argued it to show it. Therefore, people who argue have never seen it.

The husband's way is not called, the argument is not made, the benevolence is ruthless, the sincerity is not embarrassing [7], and the courage is not embarrassing [8]. It's better to talk than to argue. Benevolence often fails, sincerity does not believe and courage does not succeed. These five are all circles and several directions [9]. It's too late to know what you don't know. Who knows the argument without words and the way without words? If you can know, this is called abundance. If you are dissatisfied with your notes, you will never be exhausted, and you don't know its source, which is called Bao Guang [10].

[1] seal: separate boundaries. [2] Chang: Fixed opinion, conclusion. [3] Yes: Yes, yes; "Right" means that everyone thinks he is right. Fan (zhěn): The boundary in the field generally refers to the boundaries and differences between things. [4] Eight virtues: eight categories and eight kinds. [5] Spring and Autumn Period: This refers to ancient history, not the historical period before the Warring States Period. Shi Jing: Managing the world means regulating organizations to govern society. Record: That's what it means to write "record" after recording. [6] Huai: contained in the chest means that I can't tell things from right and wrong, but I can hide things from me, right and wrong. [7] Qi (qiān): preach "modesty" and humility. [8] chi: injury. [9] Circle: Draw a circle here and find the solution. Several: close, approximate. "Circle number direction" means that seeking a circle is similar to seeking a square, which is a metaphor for backfiring. Bao (O): Hide, hide. "Protecting the light" means hiding the light without exposing it.

Truth never divides, and speech never divides. Only by sticking to your own views and opinions can you have such views, and there will be divisions and differences. Please allow me to talk about the boundaries and standards: respect, inferiority, consistency, equality, difference, debate, contention and dispute. These are the eight manifestations of the world. For things beyond the universe, saints only acquiesce and do not argue; Sages only study and don't comment on things in the universe. As for the records of kings who were good at governing society in ancient history, saints only commented on its content and did not evaluate it. Because there is no disagreement, I know there is disagreement, and because there is no rebuttal, there is an argument. Some people will say, why is this? Sages have all kinds of opinions in their hearts, while ordinary people argue endlessly and praise others. Therefore, quarrels always occur because they only see their own right side and don't realize their mistakes.

Wise words do not need praise, eloquent people do not need to speak, kind people have no preference, honest people never give in, and brave people never hurt others. The superficial truth is not the truth. There are always things that cannot be expressed in words, and benevolence and righteousness are often revealed. Honesty and innocence will be hypocritical to the extreme, and those who are brave enough to hurt others at will are not really brave. Although these five things are incomplete, they are also close to one aspect of Tao. A wise man knows enough is enough. Who can do it without oral argument or secret morality? What can do this is a think tank in the big natural world. This kind of think tank, no matter how many things are injected, will not be full, no matter how many things are taken out, it will not be exhausted, and it does not know where its origin comes from. This is called hidden light.
