不尚贤，使民不争；不贵难得之货，使民不为盗；不见可欲，使民心不乱。是以圣人之治，虚其心，实其腹；弱其志，强其骨。常使民无知无欲。使夫知不敢弗为而已，则无不治。

Dao De Jing–chapter 2 道德经第二章
原文/Original Text :
天下皆知美之为美，斯恶已；
皆知善之为善，斯不善矣。
有无相生，难易相成，长短相形，高下相盈，音声相和，前后相随，恒也。
是以圣人处无为之事，行不言之教，万物作而弗始，生而弗有，为而弗恃，功成而弗居。夫唯弗居，是以不去。
注释/Explanation:
天下皆知美之为美，斯恶已； / 天下人都知道美何以是美，也就知道了什么是丑恶。/ When everyone knows what is beauty, how will be beautiful, then everyones knows what is terrible.
皆知善之为善，斯不善矣。/ 都知道善何以是善，也就知道了什么是不善。/ So everyones knows what is mercy and what is cruel.
有无相生，难易相成，长短相形，高下相盈，音声相和，前后相随，恒也。/
所以：有与无相并而生，难与易互相成就，长与短互相对比，高与低互相映衬，音节与旋律互相配和，前与后互相追随。这是永恒普遍之理。
/ It gains, while the other looses. It is more difficult, while the other easier. It is longer, while the other is shorter. It is tall, while other short. It comes a music then must be some sound. It is in the frond, while other is behind. These are always be.
是以圣人处无为之事，行不言之教，万物作而弗始，生而弗有，为而弗恃，功成而弗居。夫唯弗居，是以不去。/ 所以：圣者作无形迹之事，传言无声的教诲。让万物自行发生而并不创始。任其生长而不培育，任其自为而绝不把持，任其成熟而并不割刿，正是由于从不占有，所以才永远不丢失。/ That is what great people do, and what they teach. Let everything follow it own trace, get it’s own way and don’t stop. And it’s will get the goal. Because of never have, never loose.

原文/Original Text :
道，可道，非恒道。
名，可名，非恒名。
无名，天地之始；有名，万物之母。
故常无欲，以观其妙；常有欲，以观其徼。此两者同出而异名，同谓之玄。玄之又玄，众妙之门。
注释/Explanation:
道，可道，非恒道。 / 凡是可以言说的道理，都不是永恒的道理。/ Nothing will last forever. Nothing will be correct forever.
名，可名，非恒名。 / 凡是可以被命名的名称，都不是永恒的名称。/ Nothing will be named as the same forever.
无名，天地之始；/ 无任何名称，正是天地的元始。/ Everything has no name at the begining.
有名，万物之母。/ 有最初的命名，乃是生育万物的神母。 / Once it has a name, everything begins.
故常无欲，以观其妙；/ 所以：从永恒普遍的虚无，可以理解道的消隐。/ So, according the ETERNAL NOTHING, you can understand how DAO’s gone.
常有欲，以观其徼。/ 从永恒的存有，可以观察道的连续。/ According the ETERNAL THING, you can understand how DAO’s last.
此两者同出而异名，同谓之玄。/ 两者出自同一根源而名称不同。它们竟是如此玄奥。/ Both of them have the same origin but different names. It’s XUAN.
玄之又玄，众妙之门。/ 玄奥呵，玄奥！这正是洞察宇宙间一切神秘的大门。/ Then Xuan is the key to all over the puzzles.
Three-season-people
Long long time ago, Confucius had a lot of students. They followed Confucius and study Confucius’s wisdom. And there was a man A who was very eager to the wisdom and spend most of his time in learning. He feeled he have learned a lot.
Then one day comed a man B. When he comed he saw A was sweeping the ground, then he asked:” Hellow, I heared that Confucius is a great man with wisdom. I want to meet him and I have a question to ask him to find if he is that great.”
B looked at the stranger man who has green skin, then said:” Sorry sir, Confucius went out. Could you ask me that question? I probably know.”
“Ok then. It’s a very simple question, how many seasons are there?”
A feeled so confused, what a non-sense question, even a 3-year-old kid can tell that there’re four!
“That’s simple, it’s four!”
“NO!”, B smiled as he had known that A will give that WRONG ANSWER. “The student of Confucius should be more than that.”
But A insisted his answer so started a argue with B. The argument lasted a long time and Confucius came back. 2 man stoped and A thought, “Master will prove I am right!”, than he repeated the question to Confucius.
Both of A and B were waiting Confucius’ answer. And Confucius looked at B, spoke out the answer:” there are 3 seasons.” B laughed:” Confucius has REAL WISDOM”, then left.
A was more confused than just now, he asked Confucius why is that, Confucius answered:” The man with green skin is not human being, he is actually a locust! A locust won’t be alive before the end of autumn, SO HE NEVER KNOWS WINTER! You won’t be able to convince him anyway.”
Some time we don’t argue with the man. We know that it’s can only waste our time and no use. We let it go and gain much more time to do more valuable business.
