Interpretation of Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching

Chapter 66

[Jianghai is able to be the king of the hundred grains, because he is good at the next, so he can be the king of the hundred grains. 】

Yan Kejun said: "King of Hundred Valleys", each book has the word "Zhe" under "King". There is no word "qi" on the river for "it is good for it".

The case of modesty: There is no word "Zhe" in the quotation of governance, but it is cited by Yulan Dibu.Youfu and Zhao Ben have the word "ye" under "Zhi", which is cited by Yulan Dibu and Huangwangbu.However, there is no word "Zhi" in the quotation of the Ministry of Earth, and the original version of Gao Sui is the same.Nai Juan is written as "because of its goodness".

Ding Zhongyou said: "Water pouring into a stream is called a valley." See Gongyang Xi's three-year biography "Wuyigu Valley" commentary, and Erya's commentary on water Li's commentary, and Chuci's evocative "Chuangu Jingfu" commentary.

Qian's case: "King", to also. "King of Hundred Valleys" means that it is the destination of all rivers, so it can be the leader of Hundred Valleys.

[It is because a sage wants to be superior to others, he must speak to others; if he wants to be ahead of others, he must be behind him. 】

Yan Kejun said: Wang Bi has no "sage", He Shang and Wang Bi are "shangmin". "It must be said in words", the imperial annotation is "in words".Luo Zhenyu said: Jinglong, Yuzhu, Jingfu, Dunhuang Geng, Xin, and Ren all have the word "sage". "Shangmin", Jinglong, Yuzhu, Dunhuang Geng, and Xin all refer to "people" as "people". "Must be", both the imperial annotation edition and the Dunhuang Xin edition are "Yiqi".The same below.

Qian’s case: Suizhou, Fenxi, Louzheng, Gu, Peng, Fu, Fan, Zhao, Gao, and Nai scrolls all have the word “sage” in them, as does the Daozang Wangben.Strict compliance has the word "sage".Also "must use", Hangzhou, Gaohui, Funxi, Gu, Peng, and Zhao all made "it must be used", and Fu and Fan made "must use it".There is no two characters of "must" in the strict version, and the word "Qi" on the two "desires", and "ren" is combined with "min".The Royal Department of Yulan Huang Wang cited the same stone, but the word "ye" under the two "persons" is the same.Jin Renming said: "A gentleman knows that the world can't go up, so he goes down; he knows that everyone can't go up first, so he goes down." To be able to go down is to be able to go up." The meaning is the same.

[It is because the sage is at the top but not important to others, and is at the front without being harmed by others, so the world is happy to push and never tire of it. 】

Wei Jiasun said: There is no word "sage" in the imperial notes. "Happy to push but not tired", the word "tired" in this sentence and the following "not tired of what is born, but the husband is not tired", the imperial annotation is "口".The former "disgusting of eating and drinking is not tiresome", and the imperial annotation is "猒".Bi Yuan said: He Shanggong's work is "to be in front of the people without being serious, and to be in front of the people without harming them".Wang Bi wrote "Being at the top and not caring about the people, being at the front and not harming the people".Emperor Ming Tongbi, "people" as "people".

Luo Zhenyu said: There is no word "sage" in Dunhuang Xinben.

The case of Qian: Jingfu, Heshang, Gu, Peng, Gao, Zhao, Fu, and Fan all have the word "sage", but Suizhou, Fenxi, and Louzheng do not.Wenzi's moral article quotes "Being above the people is not important, being in the front is not harmful to the people, and the world is happy to push and never tire." I never get tired of it."Fu Yi's work "is based on the fact that the sage is on top and the people are not important, and that the people are not harmed when he is in the front, so the world loves to push and never tire of it."The template is the same, except that the following "bu" is replaced by "Fu", without the word "ye".

Gao Heng said: If the people wear their lord, if they have a heavy burden, they think it is a great burden, which is the so-called heavy in this article.So heavy and tired.But the people are not important, saying that the people don't feel tired.Poetry Wujiang Cart "No worries, only self-respect", Zheng Jian: "Heavy and tired." Hanshu Jingyan Wu Wang Chuan "Things happen to be heavy", Yan's note: "Heavy and tired." There is a lot of evidence for this.Huainanzi Yuandao: "If you are at the top, the people will not be serious, and if you are in the front, the people will not be harmed." The master's instruction: "The people carry it, but the top is not important; if you make a mistake, the front will not be harmful." It is all based on Laozi .

[Because it does not compete, the world cannot compete with it. 】

Luo Zhenyu said: The Geng version of Dunhuang has the word "ye" under "Zheng", the Xin version has "bu" as "no", and the Ren version has "not to fight".Qian’s case: Wang Ben and Heshang’s works are “Nothing to contend with”, Fu’s version has the word “不” in the first sentence, the model version’s “Yi Qi Bu” is written as “Not for it”, and Yan’s version is written as “Nei Yi”.In addition, the scriptures quoted in Chengshu and Rong's annotations are the same as those in Dunhuang Xinben.

[Phonetic Rhyme] Jiang's rhyme in this chapter has no rhyme.Gao Benhan: Xia, Hou rhyme.Chen Zhu added two rhymes to the word "struggle".

There are 77 characters in the Youjinglong stele version, 76 characters in the Dunhuang version, 78 characters in the Heshang version, 76 characters in the Wang version, 85 characters in the Fu version, and 82 characters in the model version.Heshang's title is "Houji No.60", Wang's title is "Chapter 66", and the model title is "Jianghai is Baigu Wangzhang No.60".
