8. Water
The best of man is like water,
Which benefits all things, and does not contend with them,
Which flows in places that others disdain,
Where it is in harmony with the Way.
So the sage:
Lives within nature,
Thinks within the deep,
Gives within impartiality,
Speaks within trust,
Governs within order,
Crafts within ability,
Acts within opportunity.
He does not contend, and none contend against him.
最高的善像水一样。水善于滋养万物,而不与万物相争。它处身于众人所厌恶的地方,所以跟道很相近。
居身,安于卑下;存心,宁静深沉;交往,有诚有爱;言语,信实可靠;为政,天下归 顺;做事,大有能力;行动,合乎时宜。唯有不争不竞,方能无过无失。
