名与身孰亲？
身与货孰多？
得与亡孰病？
甚爱必大费，多藏必厚亡。
故知足不辱，知止不殆，可以长久。
六、名利财货虽好，毕竟是身外之物，不值得为此殚精竭虑、殒身害命。这种本末倒置的行为是迷失了本心，最终收获的必定是迷茫与困苦。拿捏分寸、保持平衡，这是一种极其强大的修行力。七、重视身体、珍视心灵、崇尚厚德，这才是人生固本培元、幸福平安的真正核心。因此，警惕欲望膨胀，就不会受外物奴役而遭受屈辱；知道适可而止，就不会因外物反噬而招来祸患。八、老子提倡的“重生贵己”是建立在尊重自己和所有生命基础上的“生”，而不是苟且偷生；是找回真正的自己，而不是在小我的欲望幻想中为祸人间。人生真正的保全之道在于积德与求道：积德可以保全生命，求道可以升华生命。九、人生中所谓的“幸运”，背后都有生生世世积功累德的沉淀；人生中所遇的“不幸”，内在也都有生生世世倒行逆施的原因。宇宙的根本律是平衡，因果就是平衡最明显的表现。十、知足才能知止——每个人都只能过与自己的德相匹配的生活；否则，把持的东西越多，生命中能量的运转空间就越狭窄，若能量通道全部被堵塞了，人怎么可能不灭亡呢？It is the accumulation of merit and virtue behind 'Luck'
Below are the insights enlightened from Chapter 44:6. Although fame, fortune and wealth are good, they are all things outside the body and not worth the effort and sacrifice of one's life. This kind of behavior is to put the cart before the horse, and the person is loosing his original heart. Finally he is bound to get confusion and hardship. It is an extremely powerful practice to keep a sense of proportion and balance.7. Attaching importance to the body, cherishing the mind, and upholding virtue are the true core of a life of solidity, happiness and peace. Therefore, if we are vigilant against the expansion of our desires, we will not be enslaved by external objects and suffer humiliation; if we know not to overdo it, we will not be devastated by external objects and incur misfortune.8. Laozi's idea of 'respecting the lives and valuing oneself' is based on respect for oneself and all lives, not living on the run; it is about finding one's true self, not on the illusion of egoic desires. The true way to preserve life lies in the accumulation of virtue and the pursuit of the Taoism: the accumulation of virtue can preserve life, and the pursuit of the Taoism can sublimate the life.9. The so-called 'lucky' things in life have the accumulation of merit and virtue over a lifetime behind them; the 'unlucky' things in life have the cause of perverse actions over a lifetime within them. The fundamental law of the universe is balance, and cause and effect is the most obvious expression of balance.10. Knowing enough is the only way to know how to stop - everyone can only live a life that matches their virtue. Otherwise, the more things one holds on to, the narrower the space for energy to operate in one's life. If the energy channels are all blocked, how can people not perish?<Sharing Chapter 44 of Tao Te Ching and Blessing of balance Month> Serial 27
