Trust in virtue
"The holy man possesses not a fixed heart. The hundred families' hearts he makes his heart. The good I meet with goodness ; the bad I also meet with goodness; for virtue is good [throughout]. The faithful I meet with faith; the faithless I also meet with faith ; for virtue is faithful [throughout]. The holy man dwells in the world anxious, very anxious in his dealings with the world. He universalises his heart, and the hundred families fix upon hirn their ears and eyes. The holy man treats them all as children."
