Explanation Of The Tao Te Ching Part Fifty Five 

“He who is filled with Virtue is like a newborn child. 
Wasps and serpents will not sting him; 
Wild beasts will not pounce upon him; 
He will not be attacked by birds of prey. 
His bones are soft, his muscles weak, 
But his grip is firm. 
He has not experienced the union of man and woman, but is whole. 
His manhood is strong. 
He screams all day without becoming hoarse. 
This is perfect harmony. 

Knowing harmony is constancy. 
Knowing constancy is enlightenment. 

It is not wise to rush about. 
Controlling the breath causes strain. 
If too much energy is used, exhaustion follows. 
This is not the way of Tao. 
Whatever is contrary to Tao will not last long.”

When our bond with nature and source is strong it brings us back to the simple understanding innate in a new born child. Animals and others don’t see us as a threat and will leave us alone.

We are endowed with natural strength, the old Chinese way to express that is with grip, strong voice and sexual power.

Being rooted in this connection with constancy leads to enlightenment.

It’s not wise to try too hard, to stress and strain leads to fatigue, we need to listen to that inner voice from the Tao, find that harmony and we will endure.
