XLIX. The Virtue (Teh) of Trust

XLIX

THE VIRTUE (TEH) OF TRUST

The wise man has no fixed heart; in the hearts of the people he finds his own. The good he treats p. 36 with goodness; the not-good he also treats with goodness, for teh is goodness. The faithful ones he treats with good faith; the unfaithful he also treats with good faith, for teh is good faith.

The wise man lives in the world but he lives cautiously, dealing with the world cautiously. He universalizes his heart; the people give him their eyes and ears, but he treats them as his children.
