Tao Te Ching Chapter 38-9 Lost mercy


Today's Tao

Having lost mercy, there is righteousness. (Ch.38)


Merciful and discreet people have become rarer and rarer.

Some people are not happy when they see others who are not so "merciful" as they are.

"For mercy's sake, you've gotta do something."

Now, we have got righteous people.

They want to show off their righteousness.

They even impose their God's given righteousness on you.

What can you do then?

We accept them as part of our hologram.

-Japanese are fundamentally Japanese as other people are foremost who they are. Nevertheless, modern Japanese have tried very hard to be someone who are not traditionally Japanese. Do we share this enthusiasm for self-denial with other people?
