“The best warriors do not use violence. The best tacticians try to avoid confrontation. The best businessmen serve the communal good. The best leaders become servants of their people…”

Lao Tzu | Tao Te Ching – TRANSCEND Media Service

Tao 68:

 The best warriors do not use violence.
The best tacticians try to avoid confrontation.
The best businessmen serve the communal good.
The best leaders become servants of their people.

All of them embody the virtue of non-competition.
Not that they don’t love to compete,
but they do so in the spirit of play.
In this they are like children.

This since ancient times has been known as the ultimate unity with heaven.
