With the posting of the following verse 81 from the The Tao Te Ching (by Lao Tzu), the book comes to a finish. Thank you, Ruth, for staying from the beginning till the end in this small journey with me, in terms of studying the wonderful book that sings in praise of the ONE. Let us together worship and give thanks to the ONE for that!
81
True words aren’t eloquent;
eloquent words aren’t true.
Wise men don’t need to prove their point;
men who need to prove their point aren’t wise.
The Master has no possessions.
The more he does for others,
the happier he is.
The more he gives to others,
the wealthier he is.
The Tao nourishes by not forcing.
By not dominating, the Master leads.
