(Returning to the root)
致虛極，The (state of) vacancy should be brought to the utmost degree,
守靜篤。 and that of stillness guarded with unwearying vigour.
萬物並作， All things alike go through their processes of activity,
吾以觀復。 and (then) we see them return (to their original state).
夫物芸芸， When things (in the vegetable world) have displayed their luxuriant growth,
各復歸其根。 we see each of them return to its root.
歸根曰靜， This returning to their root is what we call the state of stillness;
是謂復命。 and that stillness may be called a reporting that they have fulfilled their appointed end.
復命曰常，The report of that fulfilment is the regular, unchanging rule.
知常曰明。 To know that unchanging rule is to be intelligent;
不知常，not to know it
妄作凶。 leads to wild movements and evil issues.
知常容， The knowledge of that unchanging rule produces a (grand) capacity and forbearance,
容乃公， and that capacity and forbearance lead to a community (of feeling with all things).
公乃王， From this community of feeling comes a kingliness of character;
王乃天， and he who is king-like goes on to be heaven-like.
天乃道， In that likeness to heaven he possesses the Dao.
道乃久，Possessed of the Dao, he endures long;
沒身不殆。and to the end of his bodily life, is exempt from all danger of decay.
