Tao Te Ching Chapter 68-4 Lower than people

Today's Tao

One who uses people well puts himself lower than them. (Ch.68)


"Hai, hai, hai. Yes, yes, yes."

Have you ever seen a Japanese saying "hai, hai, hai" while bowing?

And did you laugh?

All right. You laughed. Totally understandable.

Then, did you think about Lao Tzu and Tao Te Ching?

No?

It's a pity.

You missed a fantastic living example of Dark Depth Female 玄牝 [gen pi].

The Japanese word "hai" does not necessarily mean: "Yes. I agree with you".

It means: "Yes. I understand what you are saying, I am lower than you, and I respect you as a part of sacred nature".

In short, "I accept you and the rest".

"People" here means your hologram.

By lowering yourself and activating Dark Depth Female, you can "use" your hologram.

☞Recently the Japanese have become more and more introversive. Some things change on the superficial level. Other things hardly change. The Japanese might be heading towards the closure of the country as once they did some 400 years ago. You never know. If you want to do some business in Japan, more than ever you need a good preparation with up-to-date materials.
