"When the Great Image is upheld, All under Heaven flock to it. Flocking together but causing no harm, All live in peace and tranquility. Music and food May make passers-by pause; But Dao, when expressed, Tastes as bland as it is flavorless. You look at it but cannot see, You listen to it but cannot hear, You use it and it cannot be exhausted."

"When the Great Image is upheld, All under Heaven flock to it. Flocking together but causing no harm, All live in peace and tranquility. Music and food May make passers-by pause; But Dao, when expressed, Tastes as bland as it is flavorless. You look at it but cannot see, You listen to it but cannot hear, You use it and it cannot be exhausted."
