Verse 26

Bid on NFT

The inner is the foundation of the outer 
The still is the master of the restless 
    
The Sage travels all day 
    yet never leaves his inner treasure 
Though the views are captivating and beg attention 
    he remains calm and uninvolved 
Tell me, does the lord of a great empire 
    go out begging for rice? 
    
One who seeks his treasure in the outer world 
    is cut off from his own roots 
Without roots, he becomes restless 
Being restless, his mind is weak 
And with a mind such as this 
    he loses all command below Heaven
