| 50 | 道德經: | 出生入死。生之徒，十有三；死之徒，十有三；人之生，動之死地，十有三。夫何故？以其生，生之厚。蓋聞善攝生者，陸行不遇兕虎，入軍不被甲兵；兕無所投其角，虎無所措其爪，兵無所容其刃。夫何故？以其無死地。 |
| Dao De Jing: |
(The value set on life) Men come forth and live; they enter (again) and die. Of every ten three are ministers of life (to themselves); and three are ministers of death. There are also three in every ten whose aim is to live, but whose movements tend to the land (or place) of death. And for what reason? Because of their excessive endeavours to perpetuate life. But I have heard that he who is skilful in managing the life entrusted to him for a time travels on the land without having to shun rhinoceros or tiger, and enters a host without having to avoid buff coat or sharp weapon. The rhinoceros finds no place in him into which to thrust its horn, nor the tiger a place in which to fix its claws, nor the weapon a place to admit its point. And for what reason? Because there is in him no place of death. |

| 5 | 精神訓: | 夫人之所以不能終其壽命，而中道夭于刑戮者，何也？以其生生之厚。夫惟能無以生為者，則所以修得生也。夫天地運而相通，萬物總而為一。能知一，則無一之不知也；不能知一，則無一之能知也。譬吾處於天下也，亦為一物矣，不識天下之以我備其物與？且惟無我而物無不備者乎？然則我亦物也，物亦物也，物之與物也，又何以相物也？雖然，其生我也，將以何益？其殺我也，將以何損？ |
