The universe is everlasting.
¤Ñªø¦a¤[¡C
The reason the universe is everlasting
is that it does not live for Self.

4 Small mud mounds accumulate to form a big mountain. Creeks converges to form
a river. A great man gathers the mass to form a group. Petty ego doesn¡¦t insist
on its own idea while complies with the common standards around which are taken
as codes of their conduct. By this way, a big mountain, a river, a group is
formed.

government directs them to build an efficient government. If they work

7 All creatures consist of various organs. Tao hides behind them to arrange and
control them. Tao doesn¡¦t have selfness and doesn¡¦t take sides of a certain organ.
Tao is no-self, so even it is the actual controller, we are difficult in naming
it.

8 No-self is a necessary quality to be a leader. Once there is a self; there is
selfness and selfish mind. If so, you can¡¦t become a leader taking care of all
the benefit of the group. If there is no enough cohesion power in a group, it
dismisses.

11 In the view of time, the surrounding around us is changing continuously; so
is the weather, things, the people we meet, and even the mood we have is
different everyday. The world is always changing; something in favors us, we
say it is luck, something is averse to us, we say it is unlucky. Actually, the
unluckiness and luckiness shift from one to another all the time.

5 How to reach harmony between the big organization and the small unit so as to
make the big one exert his power? Chuang Tzu
publicized the selfless Tao that conceals both in the big one and the small one
to play a role of coordination and directing. It also conceals in each small
units but it itself doesn¡¦t make a small unit. It is said no-self: no myself,
no himself, no themselves and no self of all creatures from the beginning to
the end of day. Due to no-self, it is of no personal interest and no selfishness.
Its decision is made for all members, without any private interest, so all
small units accept his leadership and orders and each unit does its own duty
without complaint and dispute.

important to a leader. In human society, leader himself is also a member of
organization. He has personal requirement, desire, and background of family and
party.

8 The successful one however, in human society is that each industry in society
does its own duty and plays its own role. Teacher teaches students; merchant
does business; army defends outer invasion; police maintains civil order;
doctor treats patient; drama entertains audience; we who interpret classic book
console people. Generally, each can exert himself and then society is peaceful.

9 If someday someone is dissatisfied with his works, he can learn new skill to
change work. It is not difficult for him to change only if his educational
background and ability are enough. According to this, most problems in human
society are resulted from leaders. It is a significant issue for us in how to
select talent, and how to educate, manage, and behave them to be our leaders.

Not happy for living and not sad for death. Both are the stages of

1 The rules elaborated by Chuang Tzu to get wisdom are different in name from Buddha¡¦s
regulations, but the goals are same in some respects. For example: Reduction
desire for content is as same as gold concealed in hill, pearl sunk in deep
lake, making no fortune, keeping from riches and honors. Enjoying the tranquil
place is to abide by the principle of Inaction¡X Heaven. Having strong will and
courage is to have the ability to promote his virtue to other things¡XEstablish.
The known referring to body is to show his way of conduction in the society by
what he is actually doing--virtue. Deed without breaking is to keep his virtue
intact and pure--Discipline. Persisting practice to progress is completeness
and intactness. Holding wise, keeping and practicing liberation is that death
and birth are same.

Xianchi¡¦s interpretation and remark of Tao Te Ching (7) a7

1 Diamond Sutra has it that Buddha
often cares for all bodhisattvas and often imparts to them; man and woman, who
believe in Buddha, triggered supreme correct enlightenment, they should employ
no-self and being flexibility to eliminate the deluded mind.

2 No-self is that
there is no myself, no himself, no themselves and no self of all creatures from
the very beginning to the end of day. Advanced regulations of Buddha practice
have requirements as follows: don¡¦t think or say what I want to practice, and
never say that I have been successful in certain practice. If you say so,
expert know at once that actually you have not succeeded yet or you have no
opportunity to succeed because once there is mark of self, all opportunities of
success are gone.

3 It strictly
requires no mark of self. Isn¡¦t it selflessness? It requires selflessness and no-self to care for all
bodhisattvas; so does it in human¡¦s world. The difference between Bodhisattva
and non-Bodhisattva is the great power that could control all things and
operation of universe. The operation of universe is delicate, a trivia change
affecting the whole. If a powerful Bodhisattva, who is selfish, holding mark of
myself, himself, themselves and the self of all creatures from the very
beginning to the end of day, he would do certain actions to benefit himself,
family, clan and even species, and the effect would be far-reaching. Hence,
before the heaven and earth endow you with the great power of control, you are
required to be selfless and no-self.

4 A party that is entrusted by people manipulates the great machine of
government. Its policy would have influence on all people¡¦s fate. The higher
the position is; the greater the influence is. It is required to manipulate
selflessly, which is rational.

5 To the contrary, if an
official of high position governs his country without selflessness, it is very
impossible for him to continue his term. Laotse said
that long governance required no-self, selflessness and no private interest,
the governor should put his own interest far behind, and it is better to forget
his own interest, by which the long governance could last for a longer time.

6 The power of a man of practice
including theurgy, magic feet, heaven eye and supernatural power that derives
from practices have absolute influence on common people. If you have no virtue,
no righteous ways, no selflessness, and can not eliminate mark, the heaven and
earth wouldn¡¦t endow you with the power.

7 Laotse instructs people to be sage and Buddha instructs
people to be Bodhisattva, the way and advise they give all focus on no-self,
and selflessness. We all along believe that the Truth is exclusive. Do we prove
it in the concept of no-self and selflessness?
