Tao – Chapter 26

The heavy is the root of the light;
Tranquility is the lord of agitation.

Therefore the gentleman, in traveling all day, does not get far away from his luggage carts.
When he's safely inside a walled-in protected hostel and resting at ease – only then does he transcend all concern.
How can the king of ten thousand chariots treat his own person more lightly than the whole land?!

If you regard things too lightly, then you lose the basic;
If you're agitated, you lose the "lord."
