Chapter 28
Simplicity

Know the nature of the masculine
a
But hold to the feminine

b
Be the stream of living water
Being the stream of living water
The Eternal Spirit will not depart
Returning you to a weaned child

Know the source of light within
c
But hold to the dark

d
Be a good example to the world
Being a good example to the world
The Eternal Spirit will not deviate
Returning you to a limitless nature

Know the virtue of honor
e
Yet hold to humility
Be satisfied taking the lowest place
Being satisfied with the lowest place
The Eternal Spirit shall be sufficient
Retuning you to the natural state of simplicity

Tools are shaped by the Master Carpenter from a block of plain
wood to become useful f

g
The wise make use of them and then become leaders
Thus, remain undivided by keeping to the simplicity of the block
