Good as common as Grass

[Zephonith Serpent Woman]

"The Tao is the center of the Universe;

the good man's treasure,

the bad man's refuge."

"Why did the ancient masters 

esteem the Tao?

Because, being one with the Tao,

When you seek, you find;

And when you make a mistake, 

you are forgiven.

That is why everybody loves it."

"The more prohibitions you have,

the less virtuous people will be.

The more weapons you have,

the less secure the people will be.

The more subsidies you have,

the less self-reliant people will be.

Therefore the Master says:

'I let go of the law,

and people become honest.

I let go of economics,

and people become prosperous.

I let go of Religion,

and people become serene.

I let go all desire for the common good;

and the good becomes 

as common as grass."
