“Standing on "tip toe", one stands not firmly. Straining in stride, one cannot walk far. Flaunting of deeds, one is unfavorably noticed. Being self-righteous, one is not respected. Boasting of self, one's merit is unrecognized. Glorifying of self, one loses the opportunity for greatness. From the viewpoint of Tao These represent imperfect Te, Valued as are filth or disease.” SelfOpportunityLosesWalksGreatnessDiseaseStandingDeedsMeritImperfectRighteousToesTaoBoastViewpointsStrideSelf RighteousFilthFlaunting Author:Laozi
