21. The forms of great virtue

The forms of great virtue is something that only the tao can follow.
The Tao as a “thing” is only vague and obscure.
How obscue! How Vague! In it there is form.
How Vague! How obscure! in it are things.
How deep! How dark! In it there is an essence.

The essence is so real– therein is belief.

From the present to antiquity, its name has never left it, so we can examine all origins.
How do I know the form of all origins?

By this.

    How Vague! How mysterious!
