Chapter 52
The world has a beginning, thinking that the world is the mother. Have a mother, know your son, defend your mother, and don't be in danger. Block the exchange, close the door, and be diligent for life. Open an exchange, help it, and never save it. See the big with the small, and be soft with the strong. Use its light, but also its light, no harm; It was used to attack Chang.
Chapter 56
The knower does not speak, and the speaker does not know. Plug the switch and close the door; Frustrate their spirit and resolve their disputes; Its light and dust are called Xuan Tong. Therefore, if you can't get it, you can't get it; If you can't get it, you can't get it, and it hurts; You can't get it, but you can't get it; Therefore, you are the world.
Chapter 58
Its politics is old-fashioned, and its people are innocent; Its political censorship, its people lack. It is based on the sage without cutting, sincere without embarrassment, straight without arrogance, light without dazzle. Misfortune depends on happiness, and happiness depends on misfortune. Who knows its extremes? There's nothing wrong with that. The recovery is amazing, and it is the demon that recovers well. People's infatuation is long-lasting.
What is the light in Tao Te Ching?
Is it sunshine? Is it lightning? Is it the light of a flashlight? Is this a vision? Have you run out? Is it a general term for "light"? The light of reason?
Of course, there are many other associations.
Let's look at it together: be in harmony with its light, and use its light, which is bright but not gorgeous. These three lights are nouns, and the part of speech is certain. Let's see how to use them.
Guang Qi and the sun and the moon. -"Songs of the South, Nine Songs, Jun in the Cloud"
Glory of light. -"Mandarin Jin Yu"
The night is still early, and the lights of the court. -"Poetry Xiaoya Ting Liao"
Look at Laozi's contemporary light character, which means light.
The light is bright. -"Shuo Wen"
That's very simple. Let's try to translate.
And its light is the light that harmonizes itself.
To use its light is to use its own light.
Light without luster means you have light. Don't show off.
This is understandable, but I can't understand how we are light again. It is precisely because we can't understand how we become light again that there are various explanations for the understanding of light.
Lao Tzu's words are easy to understand, and there is no deep meaning at all. To use its light is to use its own light. Of course, you don't know how there is light, so you can't understand what I said. Slowly find your own light.
Why do you have your own light?
The answer is below.
Chapter 14
It means no shape, no image, it means trance.
Chapter 21
Tao is a thing, but it is only an embarrassment. It's embarrassing, and elephants. I was in a daze, and there was something inside.
The trance described in these two chapters is a state, a state in light. When this state appears, it shows that you have your own light, like sunshine and not sunshine, which is an unclear state.
It is very important to have this light, so I will say "use its light to restore its brightness", because when this light appears, we should make good use of it and it will restore its brightness. Ming is Ming Dow, and it will restore Ming Dow. It doesn't matter if you use it well.
Lao Tzu told Ming Dow an important method.
