Chapter 50 section 1
The sage give themselves up
to whatever the moment brings.
They know that they are going to die,
and they have nothing left to hold on to:
no illusions in their mind,
no resistances in their body.
They don't think about their actions;
they flow from the core of their being.
They hold nothing back from life;
therefore they are ready for death,
as one is ready for sleep after a good day's work.
