43 天下之至柔

老子道德經第四十三章

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

======
FORTY-THREE (Feng)

The softest thing in the universe
Overcomes the hardest thing in the universe.
That without substance can enter where there is no room.
Hence I know the value of non-action.

Teaching without words and work without doing
Are understood by very few.

======
43.

The softest can move freely through the hardest.
The formless can enter effortlessly into the seamless.
Then Lao Zi realizes the value of non-action:
Nothing beats deed without work,
And teaching without words.
