知者不言
Those who know do not speak — the mysterious equality
“Those who know do not speak. Those who speak do not know. Block the passages, close the doors, blunt the sharpness, untangle the knots — this is mysterious unity.”
知者不言，言者不知。塞其兑，闭其门，挫其锐，解其纷，和其光，同其尘，是谓玄同。故不可得而亲，不可得而疏；不可得而利，不可得而害；不可得而贵，不可得而贱。故为天下贵。
The deepest understanding is wordless. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can offer a friend who is hurting is not advice — just your silent, present company.
知者不言言者不知——真知者不炫耀言辞。
塞其兑闭其门挫其锐解其纷和其光同其尘——五步功夫达到玄同境界。
玄同——超越亲疏、利害、贵贱对立的玄妙同一状态。
故为天下贵——达到此境界即为天下最可贵的。
