Tao Te Ching Chapter 6 | Lao-Tzu | Comparative Translations

The Way of Virtue





The valley spirit dies not, aye the same;

The female mystery thus do we name.

Its gate, from which at first they issued forth,

Is called the root from which grew heaven and earth.

Long and unbroken does its power remain,

Used gently, and without the touch of pain.

The Tao is called the Great Mother:

empty yet inexhaustible,

it gives birth to infinite worlds.


It is always present within you.

You can use it any way you want.
