Chapter 71

Il savê che tu no sas al è la mê superioritât

知不知上,不知知病。夫唯病病,是以不病。圣人不病,以其病病,是以不病。
Conossi che no tu sas al è di prime qualîtât,
no conossi che tu sas al è malatie.
Se tu consideris la malatie come malatie,
di conseguence tu no sfaris malatie.
Il sant nol è malât,
parce che al considera la malatie come malatie,
di conseguence nol è malât.

Riflesion Profonde

Di voir chest capitul?

This chapter speaks of the humility in acknowledging one's ignorance. Knowing that we don't know everything is a form of spiritual superiority, while not knowing that we don't know is a true illness. The sage, recognizing their own imperfection, is far from sickness.

Ce ai a ve che cun mi?

I reflect that when I pretend to know everything, I put myself in danger. This chapter reminds me that the humility of admitting I don't know is my strength. Instead of fearing showing my ignorance, I can accept that knowing is a constant journey.

Ce veso di fâ vuê?

Today nothing tells me that I have the answer for everything. If I feel like affirming something clearly or with certainty, I will pause and ask myself: 'Am I sure?' In this pause I may have the opportunity to learn something new.
