Inaction and Underneathness
Inaction
Your understanding is flawed. Seek to improve it. Adopt a learning stance, be tentative.
- Be patient in understanding the complexity of a predicament. Don't rush to a solution.
- Wait for a better question to arise from loose and open attention.
- Let action emerge from experience.
- Act without acting on, work without working at.
- Work with, not work against.
Underneathness
The Sage puts themself behind, to be on top without crushing, to guide without leading into harm.
- Conquer by quiescence, by getting underneath.
