第五十章 出生入死出生入死。生之徒十有三; 死之徒十有三; 人之生，动之于死地，亦十有三。夫何故？以其生生之厚。盖闻善摄生者，路行不遇兕虎，入军不被甲兵；兕无所投其角，虎无所措其爪，兵无所容其刃。夫何故？以其无死地。The Cycling fromBirth and DeathMen go forth intolife, And return in death.Those coming to li

第四十七章 悟道通天不出户，知天下；不窥牖，见天道。其出弥远，其知弥少。 是以圣人不行而知，不见而明，不为而成。 Knowingby Sub-ConsciousnessWithout stepping outside one's doors, One can know what is happening inthe world, Without looking out of one's windo
