Refine the self and set up the foundation.
Overcome anger and lust; conquer the self and return to normalcy
Mundane feelings and idle thoughts are all to be thrown away

Those who hear the Way are small sages; those who accomplish the Way are great sages.

What about those who follow the way? Just joking, good post

„Mundane feelings and idle thoughts are all to be thrown away?“This totally goes against Zhuangzi who wrote that everything gathers in emptiness. He even had a story about an ugly, deformed, and daft man who wins the trust of all men. I don’t understand this quote and how it directly conflicts with the foundation of daoism.
