• LV - Ce qui est contre la Voie périt
  26 de fevereiro de 2018, por Cardoso de Castro

  Waley
  The impunity of things fraught with the “power” May be likened to that of an infant. Poisonous insects do not sting it, Nor fierce beasts seize it, Nor clawing birds maul it, Its bones are soft, its sinews weak; but its grip is strong. Not yet to have known the union of male and female, But to be completely formed, Means that the vital force is at its height; To be able to scream all day without getting hoarse Means that the harmony is at its perfection. To understand such harmony is (...)

• XXIX - Cada um quer governar todos os homens...
  22 de fevereiro de 2018, por Cardoso de Castro

  Queres melhorar o mundo? Não acho que isso possa ser feito. O mundo é sagrado. Não pode ser melhorado. Se mexes com ele, o arruínas. Se o tratas como um objeto, o perdes. Há um tempo para estar adiante, um tempo para estar atrás; um tempo para estar em movimento, um tempo para estar em repouso; um tempo para estar vigoroso, um tempo para estar exausto; um tempo para estar seguro, um tempo para estar em perigo. O sábio vê as coisas como elas são, sem tentar controlá-las. Deixa-as seguir seus próprios (...)

• LXVII - La charité, la simplicité, l’humilité
  27 de fevereiro de 2018, por Cardoso de Castro

  Waley
  Every one under heaven says that our Way is greatly like folly. But it is just because it is great, that it seems like folly. As for things that do not seem like folly — well, There can be no question about their smallness! Here are my three treasures. Guard and keep them! The first is pity; The second, frugality; The third, refusal to be “foremost of all things under heaven.” For only he that pities is truly able to be brave; Only he that is frugal is able to be profuse. Only he that (...)

• LXVIII - L’art de ne pas lutter
  27 de fevereiro de 2018, por Cardoso de Castro

  Waley
  The best charioteers do not rush ahead; The best fighters do not make displays of wrath. The greatest conqueror wins without joining issue; The best user of men acts as though he were their inferior. This is called the power that comes of not contending, Is called the capacity to use men, The secret of being mated to heaven, to what was of old.
  Wieger
  A. Que celui qui commande, ne pense pas que c’est la tactique, la valeur, l’effort, qui donnent la victoire.

• XLVIII - Celui qui pratique la Voie diminue chaque jour
  25 de fevereiro de 2018, por Cardoso de Castro

  Waley
  Learning consists in adding to one’s stock day by day; The practice of Tao consists in “subtracting day by day, Subtracting and yet again subtracting Till one has reached inactivity. But by this very inactivity Everything can be activated.” Those who of old won the adherence of all who live under heaven All did so not interfering. Had they interfered, They would never have won this adherence.

  A. Par l’étude, on multiplie chaque jour (dans sa mémoire les notions particulières (...)

• XX - Sans soucis
  21 de fevereiro de 2018, por Cardoso de Castro

  Waley
  Between wei and o What after all is the difference? Can it be compared to the difference between good and bad? The saying “what others avoid I too must avoid” How false and superficial it is? All men, indeed, are wreathed in smiles, As though feasting after the Great Sacrifice, As though going up to the Spring Carnival. I alone am inert, like a child that has not yet given sign; Like an infant that has not yet smiled. I droop and drift, as though I belonged nowhere. All men have enough (...)

• XXX - Se faire puissant, est donc contraire au Principe
  22 de fevereiro de 2018, por Cardoso de Castro

  Waley
  He who by Tao purposes to help a ruler of men Will oppose all conquest by force of arms; For such things are wont to rebound. Where armies are, thorn and brambles grow. The raising of a great host Is followed by a year of dearth. Therefore a good general effects his purpose and then stops; he does not take further advantage of his victory. Fulfils his purpose and does not glory in what he has done; Fulfils his purpose and does not boast of what he has done; Fulfils his purpose, but (...)

• Tao Te Ching VI: a mãe misteriosa de todos
  3 de setembro, por Cardoso de Castro

  O Tao é chamado a Grande Mãe: vazio no entanto inexaurível, dá nascimento a infinitos mundos. Está sempre presente dentro de ti. Podes usá-lo de qualquer modo que queiras.
  Mitchell
  The Tao is called the Great Mother: empty yet inexhaustible, it gives birth to infinite worlds. It is always present within you. You can use it any way you want. [MitchellTTC]

• XXXV - L’homme parfait présente l’image de la Voie
  23 de fevereiro de 2018, por Cardoso de Castro

  Waley
  He who holding the Great From goes about his work in the empire Can go about his, yet do no harm. All is peace, quietness and security. Sound of music, smell of good dishes Will make the passing stranger pause. How difference the words that Tao gives forth! So thin, so flavourless! If one looks for Tao, there is nothing solid to see; If one listens for it, there is nothing loud enough to hear. Yet if one uses it, it is inexhaustible.
  Wieger
  A. Parce qu’il ressemble au grand (...)

• Tao Te Ching X: deixar as portas se abrirem e se fecharem...
  3 de setembro, por Cardoso de Castro

  Podes convocar tua mente de sua vagabundagem e manter-se na unidade original? Podes deixar teu corpo se tornar relaxado como de um recém-nascido? Podes limpar tua visão interior até que nada mais vejas senão a luz? Podes amar as pessoas e conduzi-las sem impôr tua vontade? Podes lidar com as questões mais vitais deixando os eventos tomarem seu curso? Podes dar um passo atrás de tua própria mente e assim compreender todas as coisas? Dando nascimento e alimentando, tendo sem possuir, agindo sem (...)

• XLIX - le Sage est sans émotion
  25 de fevereiro de 2018, por Cardoso de Castro

  Waley
  The Sage has no heart of his own; He uses the heart of the people as his heart. Of the good man I approve, But of the bad I also approve, And thus he gets goodness. The truthful man I believe, but the liar I also believe, And thus he gets truthfulness. The Sage, in the dealings with the world, seems like one dazed with fright; For the world’s sake be dulls his wits. The Hundred Families all the time strain their eyes and ears, The Sage all the time sees and hears no more than an (...)

• Matgioi (VM) – I Ching
  2 de setembro, por Cardoso de Castro

  Resumo do capítulo "I Ching - Primeiro Monumento do Conhecimento" / Chapitre II Le premier monument de la connaissance
  resumo Raça amarela é essencialmente tradicional, a essência de sua filosofia reside nos livros mais antigos, escritos em uma época onde as necessidades do homem eram menores, onde o ardor de seus desejos não o levavam a obscurecer, ciente ou inconscientemente, a verdade. A piedade filial dos chineses considerava que o que podia interessar ao homem estava contido virtualmente (...)

• Matgioi: O Te
  8 de agosto, por Cardoso de Castro

  MATGIOI. [La voie rationnelle.->https://archive.org/details/Matgioi/1936-Matgioi-Khien Paris: Éditions traditionnelles, 1984
  O segundo livro sagrado do Taoismo forma com o primeiro um todo completo; é ao mesmo tempo distinto como uma aplicação pode ser distinta de seu princípio.
  Laotseu fez destes dois livros, um só tratado, ou como dizem os chineses um Ching ou King; pensava ele que o primeiro livro só seria útil se o leitor se aplicasse o segundo; e o segundo só seria inteligível e (...)
