Lao zi - He who respects the State as his own person is fit to govern it. He who loves the State as his own body is fit to be entrusted with it.

Chapter 1 - Lao zi says
He who respects the State as his own person is fit to govern it. He who loves the State as his own body is fit to be entrusted with it. – Lao Zi

He who respects the state as his own person is fit to govern it. He who loves the states as his own body is fit to be entrusted with it. While this theory is seem so strange , it may infact hold an underlying truth which I wonder it by myself.

Perhaps lao zi had wrote it in such a way that who ever take care of the state must be able to take care of the state as how he take care of himself for a very reason that if a person are unable to take care of himself well, he would not be able to take care of the state well also. And it may also imply that the person who are entrusted to take care the state are one who loves the states as his own body as we do know almost everyone loves and take care their own body well, but this does not mean that they actually love and take care the states as his own body.

There are other types of possibilities which I can think of, it is said that an emperor well-being is very precious since an emperor sick may affected the entire kingdom. And because of this, if the well being ruler loves the state as he love his own body, he will be able to properly take care the states as well as himself for a long period of time. J

What do you think? Or does you think that it is possible for one who do not loves his own body is fit to be entrusted with the state?

 "To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear." - Buddha source: https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/b/buddha387356.html There are times when healing is not as effective as it suppose to be. don't get me wrong, it is important that one should get medical check up and take medicine when it is necessary . but there are times when there are certain illness that keep coming back even after one goes for operation for example.
