道德經:
天下之至柔,馳騁天下之至堅。
無有入無間,吾是以知無為之有益。
不言之教,無為之益,天下希及之。
Dao De Jing:
(The universal use (of the action in the weakness of the Dao))
The softest thing in the world dashes against and overcomes the hardest; that which has no (substantial) existence enters where there is no crevice.
I know hereby what advantage belongs to doing nothing (with a purpose).
There are few in the world who attain to the teaching without words, and the advantage arising from non-action.

Heaven below (the sacred body) has perfect flexibility and moves like a galloping horse.
Heaven below has perfect strength.

Not-being penetrates emptiness.
I perceive not doing (wuwei) as the means to advance.
Not speaking is its philosophy.

Not doing benefits the world.
Heaven below soundlessly reaches for it.
