所謂“無為”是指“無為之為”，也就是手段和前提。“道”是無為的，但“無為”並不是什麼都沒做，而是指無心而為，也就是順流而為、自然而然。簡單說，“無為”就是按照道的原則去做事；這樣做的結果是，周圍的人和事會因我們的順道而行自然改變。“無為”的意思十分豐富，若落在做人做事中，就是指有所必為、也有所不為——也就是說“為”是有條件的，不符合條件是不能為的；否則，若勉強為之，不但不能達到萬物將自化的效果，還有可能會傷害到自己：比如，“無為”是指不過多幹預別人，也就是說別太主觀、別瞎指揮，或者胡作非為、輕舉妄動；也不要費力氣去做那些表面文章，只是聚焦在一點上：尊重萬物自己的成長規律。因為很多時候，與其強勢干預，不如靜觀其變。否則，急於求成反而後患無窮！也比如，“無為”是使自己處在一個可選擇的狀態中，不躁不忙，不陷進被動，也不高估自己，凡事都不脫離現實的整體性和事物發展的漸進性。即使有機會進行跨越式的發展，其前提也必然是尊重事物發展的客觀規律。再比如，“無為”也是指那些有悖於道德的事，再有誘惑力，也絕對不做！還有，有悖客觀規律的事不做；境界格局低下的事不做；純屬為己謀私的事不做；情緒化、缺少理性、歇斯底里的事不做；壓根做不到的事不做；吹牛冒泡兒的事不做；顯示自己、居功自傲的事不做；時機不對的事不做；傷害旁人的事堅決不做……所以，“無為”就是修道，就是迴歸生命最高的道——“無為”是讓萬物自行運轉、自化自得；“無為”不是人定勝天，而是人應順天。應該說，“無為”是生命中一個最偉大的功課！只有“無為”的境界，才能達到“無不為”的效果。本章中，老子在強調道的無為性時，也強調了道的質樸性和本初性——這樣的“樸”記憶體寬廣、空間遼闊、時間久長，不受慾望的控制與迷惑，始終與大道相通。因此，在做人做事的過程中，我們至少應該是無謬惡之為、無過分之慾，才能與大道相合！一個人只有以樸質之心取代欲作之動，才能引導自己成為更本色、得道、從容、心胸闊廣、和諧幸福的人。所以，只有無為，才能像道一樣無不為。感恩您的閱讀，祝您一切美好，我們相約明天再見！
The so-called "Inaction" refersto "Inaction to do something", that is means and premise."Tao" is inaction, but "Inaction" does not mean doingnothing, but refers to doing things unintentionally, that is, doing things alongthe flow naturally. In short, "Inaction" is to do things according tothe principles of Tao. As a result, people and things around us will naturallychange as we go along the way.
The meaning of "Inaction" is veryrich. If it comes to being a person and doing things, it means that somethingmust be done and something must not be done. That is to say,"Inaction" is conditional, and if it does not meet the conditions, itcannot be done. Otherwise, if it is done reluctantly, it will not only fail toachieve the effect that everything will be self-contained, but also may hurtitself. For example, "Inaction" means that you cannot interfere withothers, that is to say, "Inaction" means that you cannot interferewith others Don't be too subjective, don't command blindly, or act recklessly;don't make efforts to do superficial things, just focus on one point: respectthe growth law of all things. Because most of the time, it is better to waitand see its change than to intervene strongly. Otherwise, if you are eager forsuccess, you will have endless troubles!
For example, "Inaction" is tomake yourself in a state of choice, not impatient, not busy, not trapped inpassivity, not overestimating yourself, not divorced from the reality of thewhole and the gradual development of things. Even if there is an opportunityfor leapfrog development, the premise is to respect the objective law of thedevelopment of things.
For another example, "Inaction"also refers to those things that are against morality. No matter how attractivethey are, they will never do them! What's more, don't do things that go againstthe objective law; don't do things that are in a low state; don't do thingsthat are purely for self-interest; don't do things that are emotional,irrational and hysterical; don't do things that can't be done at all; don't dothings that boast and bubble; don't do things that show themselves and takepride in themselves; don't do things that are not right at the right time;don't do things that hurt others.
Therefore, "Inaction" is monasticism,is to cultivate and return to the highest way of life - "Inaction" isto let all things work and become self- satisfied; "Inaction" is notthat man can conquer heaven, but that man should obey heaven. It should be saidthat "Inaction" is one of the greatest lessons in life!
Only the state of "Inaction" canachieve the effect of "Inaction".
In this chapter, when Lao Tzu emphasizesthe inaction of Tao, he also emphasizes the simplicity and primitiveness ofTao. Such “simplicity” has broad memory, vast space, long time, is notcontrolled and confused by desire, and is always connected with Tao. Therefore,in the process of being a man and doing things, we should at least be free fromfallacies and evils, without excessive desire, in order to be consistent withthe Tao! Only by replacing the desire with a simple heart can a person leadhimself to be more natural, virtuous, calm, broad-minded, harmonious and happy.Therefore, only inaction can do everything like Tao.
