谷神不死
“The valley spirit never dies. It is the mysterious feminine. The gateway of the mysterious feminine is the root of Heaven and Earth.”
谷神不死，是谓玄牝。玄牝之门，是谓天地根。绵绵若存，用之不勤。
There is a power in receptivity — in being open, yielding, and deeply present. This is the feminine principle that gives life to all things. Honor it within yourself.
谷神——谷（虚空）之神，即道的虚无之性。
玄牝——幽深的母性生殖力，象征道生养万物的力量。
绵绵若存——似有似无，不断不常。
用之不勤——用之不尽（勤通尽）。
此章以女性生殖比喻道的创生力。
