道德經 第六十一章 大國與小國
大國者下流,天下之交。
天下之牝,牝常以靜勝牡,以靜為下。
故大國以下小國,則取小國。
小國以下大國,則取大國。
故或下以取,或下而取,大國不過欲兼畜人,小國不過欲入事人。
夫兩者各得其所欲,大者宜為下。
現代漢語解析
大的國家就像山谷河水向下流動彙集的地方,是天下的交匯。
天下的陰性,陰性的一方常常以安靜取勝於陽性。以靜作為低姿態。
所以說,大國對小國擺低姿態,則獲得小國的依附結盟。
小國對大國擺低姿態,則獲得大國的保護結盟。
所以說,不管是擺低姿態而獲得依附結盟,或者是擺低姿態而獲得保護結盟,
大國只不過想兼并資源人員,小國只不過想獲得安全保護。
這兩者,各獲得自己所想要的,大的一方,適合擺抵姿態。
A big country is like at the low
place where the water of the valleys and rivers merges. It is a united place under the heaven.
About the females under the heaven, a female usually wins a male by quiet.
Make quiet as low-key attitude.
Therefore, if a big country respects
a small country with low-key attitude, it will win the small country』s attaching.
If a small country respects a big country
with low-key attitude, it will win the protection from the big country.
No matter being a low-key country that
wins the attachment, or being a low-key country that wins the protection, the
big country just wants to acquire the resources and humans, the small country just wants to
be protected.
These two, all win what their want. A big one, should be low-key.
