Daoism Cont…The Dao never does anything
yet through it all things are done
If powerful men and women could center themselves in it,
the whole world would be transformedby itself, in its natural rhythms.
People would be contentWith their simple, everyday lives, in harmony and free of
desire.
When there is no desire,all things are at peace.
