The Sage King,
Inner Chapters
by Chang Tsu

Do not seek fame.
Do not make plans.
Do not be absorbed by activities.
Do not think that you know.
Be aware of all there is and dwell
in the infinite.
Wander where there is no path.
Be all that Heaven gave you, but act
as if you have received nothing.
Be empty that is all.
The mind of the perfect man
is like a mirror.
It grasps nothing.
It expects nothing.
It reflects but does not hold.
Therefore the perfect man
can act without effort.
