#TTC Chapter 3 Here's chapter three. Let me know what you think it means in the comments or at http://waterpigs.co.uk/tao-te-ching/chapters/3/ -- Not exalting the gifted prevents quarreling. Not collecting treasures prevents stealing. Not seeing desirable things prevents confusion of the heart. The wise therefore rule by emptying hearts and stuffing bellies, by weakening ambitions and strengthening bones. If men lack knowledge and desire, then clever people will not try to interfere. If nothing is done, then all will be well. -- #taoism #philosophy

Here's chapter three. Let me know what you think it means in the comments or at http://waterpigs.co.uk/tao-te-ching/chapters/3/

Not exalting the gifted prevents quarreling. Not collecting treasures prevents stealing.
Not seeing desirable things prevents confusion of the heart.
The wise therefore rule by emptying hearts and stuffing bellies, by weakening ambitions and strengthening bones.
If men lack knowledge and desire, then clever people will not try to interfere.
If nothing is done, then all will be well.
