Chapter 21 - Building Blocks With No Shape

True wisdom;
Follows from the Dao.
The boundaries of Dao are solid,
But there seems to be no edge.
From the haze;
It seems Dao has a shape,
From afar;
It seems Dao can be grasped.
Despite its immeasurability,
It seems to contain the building blocks to life,
As real as reality itself.
Preceding time,
It flows through all creation,
To know Dao,
Is to know the beginning of beginnings.

孔德之容，惟道是从。道之为物，惟恍惟惚。惚兮恍兮，其中有象；恍兮惚兮，其中有物；窈兮冥兮，其中有精，其精甚真，其中有信，自今及古，其名不去，以阅众甫。吾何以知众甫之状哉？以此。
