Tao te Ching

37 The everlasting Tao acts according to the natural Way. Therefore there is nothing that It will not accomplish. If kings and the nobilities can abide by their true nature and follow the great Tao, All things shall be reformed naturally. If during the process of reform, desires arouse. I shall overcome with the simplicity of original nature. With the simplicity of true nature, there shall be no desire. Without desire, one’s original nature will be at peace. And the world will naturally be in accord with the right Way.
