He
who (walks flightily) on tiptoe is not upright. He who (walks
with long) strides (can) not do (things). |
| 24.2.1 |
He
who is seeing (things from) his own (viewpoint) is not clear (about
things). He who (has his) own opinion does not
understand. |
| 24.2.2 |
He
who takes credit of his achievement (has) no deservingness. He
who is self-conceited is not growing (in
experience). |
| 24.3.1 |
These in Tao, are said to be leftover food
(and) redundant action. |
| 24.3.2 |
(And) things may
dislike them. |
| 24.3.3 |
So
a man with Tao (does) not dwell on
these. |
