Sample Sentences
我想实现自己的政治抱负,我要辅佐君主建立一个井井有条的国家,该怎么做呢?
I want to realize my own political aspirations. I want to assist a monarch in creating a methodical and systematic country. How do I do that?
同样,如果君主推举贤人做官,那么人民就学会了竞争,君主爱惜金银财宝,那么人民就懂得了偷盗。所以要想治理好国家,就应该让人民头脑空,肚子饱,身体强壮,但没有欲望。这叫做“无为而治”,就是什么都不需要做的、顺其自然的治国方法。
By the same token, if a monarch selects wise men to become officials, the people will become competitive; if he covets wealth and treasure, the people will learn to steal. Therefore, in order to properly administer a country, the peoples' minds should be empty, their bellies full, and their bodies strong, but they should have no desires. This is called "governing by doing nothing;" using it, you need not do anything. It's a method of governance that follows the natural course of nature.
粗粗地读过了,不过......我周游各国,宣传我的治国思想,可那些君主都不采纳。哎!是那些君主难以说通呢,还是“道”难以说清呢?
I've skimmed through them, but...I've traveled far and wide to every nation preaching my ideology on how to run a country, but no king is willing to adopt it. Ah! Is it that the monarchs are difficult to convince or that the Dao is difficult to explain?
