62 道者 萬物之奧

老子道德經第六十二章

道者　萬物之奧
善人之寶　不善人之所保

美言可以示尊　美行可以加人
人之不善　何棄之有
故立天子　置三公
雖有拱璧以先駟馬
不如坐進此道

古之所以貴此道者何
不曰求以得　有罪以免邪
故為天下貴

======
SIXTY-TWO

Tao is the source of the ten thousand things.
It is the treasure of the good man, and the refuge of the bad.
Sweet words can buy honor;
Good deeds can gain respect.
If a man is bad, do not abandon him.
Therefore on the day the emperor is crowned.
Or the three officers of state installed,
Do not send a gift of jade and a team of four horses,
But remain still and offer the Tao.
Why does everyone like the Tao so much at first?
Isn't it because you find what you seek and are forgiven when you sin?
Therefore this is the greatest treasure of the universe.

62. (Tao in the name of Love)

Love dominates everything in life.
Those who are in love want to keep it.
Those who are out of love want to find it.

Good words can gain recognition;
Good deeds can gain appreciation.
There's no reason to abandon a lost soul.
If someone is successful,
Rather than presenting good words and deeds as gifts,
It's better to send in Love.

Why is Love so valuable ever since the beginning of time?
Isn't it because with Love,
all you yearnings are answered,
and all your wrongs are forgiven?
Therefore Love is the best thing in Life.
