ABSTRACT

Virtue (TE), here the exemplification of TAO. Charity can be evoked. Duty to one's neighbour can be wrongly directed. Ceremonies are mere shams.

'Therefore it has been said, "If TAO perishes, then Ti? will perish. If T$ perishes, then charity will perish. If charity perishes, then duty to one's neighbour will perish! If duty to one's neiyhbour perishes, then ceremonies will perish. Ceremonies are but a showy ornament of TAO, while oft-times the source of trouble."
