Venerable sages
(like Confucius, those considered ‘masters’, ‘saints’, ‘sacred’, ‘holy’ or ‘noble’
and some who are emperorsor kings)
universally make fair and equitable public announcements
to eliminate prestige, reputation and fame
focused on stubbornly holding to one’s opinion, belittling others and killing
(the ungrounded and insane disease
loved, promoted, counselled against, satirized and ridiculed
by many).
Fundamental benevolence
restores repeatedly and completely –
in this way,
it destroys and separates
the empty and marginal
that defile, hinder and obstruct
without reason.
Gathering seeds
while searching for magical symbols, spells or amulets
is unimpressive theft
from that which is good, bright and superior –
highly valued capacity, ability and talent …
hence,
do what is necessary
while being fair and balanced.
