SoulType 1, Chapter 73


Being rash in your courage is like killing.
Not being rash in your courage supports life.
Of these two, one supports Heaven, the other does not.

People who are in an ugly-hearted place, what do they know?
The sages are correct to watch for this difficulty.Heaven’s Tao:
- does not compete and excels at overcoming.
- does not use words and has good answers.
- does not summon yet spontaneously attracts.
- has a patient manner, yet is good at laying plans.

Heaven’s net is vast, wide, and open, and nothing is lost.
