The Way creates you
Integrity nurtures you
Matter clothes you
Your circumstances perfect you
Therefore,
Amongst The Ten Thousand Things
Not one of them does not
Worship Tao and treasure Te
The worship of Tao
And the treasuring of integrity
Are not ordered by anyone
But always occur spontaneously
Of their own accord
Therefore, The Way gives life to you
Integrity nourishes you,
Raises you, develops you,
Protects you, prepares you,
Sustains you, houses you,
Creating life without owning it
Acting without attachment to outcome
Raising you without ruling you
This is called Integrity’s Mysterious Secret
