Sixty-Five


The ancient observers of Tao did not teach it to others.
They let them remain simple and unknowing.
People are difficult to deal with when they think they know.

Leaders who think they know are a curse to those they lead.
Leaders with a simple heart are a blessing to all.

Both are manifestations of the Source.
Knowing the Source is a Virtue.
Virtue is mysterious, profound, far reaching.
Reaching far, it returns to itself, and is complete.
