The Way gave birth to unity, Unity gave birth to duality, Duality gave birth to trinity, Trinity gave birth to the myriad creatures. The myriad creatures bear yin on their backs and embrace yang in their bosoms. They neutralize these vapors and thereby achieve harmony. That which all under heaven hate most Is to be orphaned, destitute, and hapless. Yet kings and dukes call themselves thus. Things may be diminished by being increased, increased by being diminished. Therefore, That which people teach, After deliberation, I also teach people. Therefore, “The tyrant does not die a natural death.” I take this as my mentor.
