Chapter: 10  Inner Harmony - translated by  R.L. Wing

In managing your instincts and embracing Oneness,

       Can you be undivided?

In focusing your influence,

      Can you yield as a newborn child?

In clearing your insight

      Can you become free of error?

In loving people and leading the organization,

      Can you not weaken?

In seeing clearly in all directions,

       Can you be without knowledge?

 

Produce things, cultivae things;

Produce but do not possess.

Act without expectation.

Advance without dominating.

These arecalled the Subtle Powers.
