Chapter 22

Index
Rare words are natural; thus, a whirlwind does not last all morning, a sudden rain does not last all day.
Who causes these things?
Heaven and Earth.
If even Heaven and Earth cannot last forever, how much less so for humans?
Therefore, those who align themselves with the Dao become one with the Dao; those who embody virtue become one with virtue; those who lose their way become one with loss.
Those who become one with the Dao, the Dao joyfully embraces; those who become one with virtue, virtue joyfully embraces; those who become one with loss, loss joyfully embraces.
When trust is insufficient, there is distrust.
