I was flipping through the Tao Te Ching.
No 13 starts............
Accept disgrace willingly.
Accept misfortune as the human condition.
What do you mean by 'Accept disgrace willingly'?
Accept being unimportant.
Do not be concerned with loss or gain.
This is called 'accepting disgrace willingly'.
What do you mean by 'Accept misfortune as the human condition'?
Misfortune comes from having a body.
Without a body, how could there be misfortune?
