The manifestations of Infinity never cease manifesting,
it is known as the oneness of male and female.
The oneness is the gateway to all physical things.
Everlasting, endless and invisible, it exists,
its usefulness comes inexhaustible.
谷神不死,是謂玄牝。玄牝之門,是謂天地根。綿綿若存,用之不勤。
[注釋]
1.谷神:純宇宙意識能量,道的本源能量
2.玄牝(pìn ):生長、孕育之溫床
3.綿綿若存:連綿不絕
4.不勤(qín ):不窮竭
[譯文]
道的本源能量永恒不滅,是化生萬物的玄妙雌母。
玄妙雌母是造就宇宙萬物的生育之門。
宇宙萬物源源不斷地借助道的能量循環(huán)往復(fù), 永無窮盡。
