A MEAN PERSON AND A NOBLE
PERSON ARE NOT INNATE
(A poem of moral wisdom)
A mean person and a noble person are not innate
This depends upon whether Tao and Te are
revealed or obscured
A thought reveals Te: the body of a noble
person
A thought obscures Te: the arrival of a mean
person
Reflect on where thoughts arise
Educating yourself, heroic persons
Anyone who sees you will love you: beauty of an
exemplary person
A mean person is kept away from others, can hardly
walk on earth
By Shanlin-Tzu
