He who obtains has little
He who scatters has much
So be like water, go everywhere
Experience everything, experiment
That is the quickest way to learning
She who loves the world
Finds easiest the world inside herself
The sage does not hoard, for there
Is no such thing as real hoarding
The more he helps others
The more he benefits himself
the more she gives to others
The more she gets herself
The career of the sage is personal
Yet the rewards are always impersonal
Nothing is softer or more flexible
As water, so be as water
Nothing will then be able to resist you
Agree to lose yourself, that you may
Be transformed into something else
When virtue is lost, compassion appears
When suffering is endured with a smile
Order begins to stir in the system
For all systems are the same, like water.
