Of #detachment and opposites

“When some people see some things as #beautiful, other things become ugly. When some see some things as #good, other things become #bad.

#Being and non-being complement each other. #Difficult and #easy support each other. Long and short define each other. High and low depend on each other. Before and after follow each other.

Therefore the #Master acts without doing anything and teaches without saying anything. Things arise and he lets them come; things disappear and he lets them go. He has but doesn’t possess, acts but doesn’t expect. When his work is done, he frees his mind from it. That is why it lasts forever. ” – #Lau_Tzu ( #Tao te Ching)
