Dao - 45 (FD28082020-6)
True perfection seems imperfect,
yet it is perfectly itself.
True fullness seems empty, yet it is fully present.
True straightness seems crooked.
True wisdom seems foolish.
True art seems artless.
The master allows things to happen.
She shapes events as they come.
She steps out of the way
and let the Tao speak for itself.
Tao Te Ching by Stephen Mitchell.

Author opinion:
It means that things that are true doesn't seem like true, things are originally like that doesn't seem to be like that. Maybe thats the reason why a master will allow things to happen as they come , without even interupting it and let the Tao speak for itself.
