Flurried movement defeats the cold;
Tranquility defeats the heat.
Clarity and tranquility make the world impartial.

    But its use never fails.
    A bowl filled to the top seems empty, But its use never comes to an end.

  2. When creatures reach their peak,
    they become deformed and distorted.

  3. If you wish to draw in your wings,
    You must momentarily stretch them out.
    If you wish to weaken something'
    You must momentarily make it strong.
    If you wish to grasp something,
    You must momentarily give it up.
    This is called
    "the something in the brightness of day"
    The soft and weak
    will be victorious over the hard and strong.
