Chapter 73
One who innovates merely
to be innovative
Comes eventually to a dead
end.
One who innovates because
he must in order
to proceed forward with
his work,
always continues to advance.
The first case is the fate
of the clever.
The second case is the fate
of the mastercraftsman.
To know the difference is
a sign of wisdom.
The nature of Harmony is to achieve
without striving for achievement;
to enlighten without explanation;
To arrive without being sought
after.
Unhurried, all is accomplished
at its appointed time.
Sparsely meshed is Harmony's
net,
yet, nothing escapes it.
