    Practice emptiness to the extreme.Keep stillness whole.Myriad things act in concert. I therefore watch their return. All things flourish, and each returns to its root.Return to the root is called Quietude.Quietude is called Way of Life.Way of Life is called Constant.Acting without knowing this constant can be harmful.Understanding this Constant is called receptivity, which is impartial.Impartiality is Kingship.Kingship is Heaven.Heaven is the Tao.Though you lose the body, you do not die.
