Sincere words are not fine; fine words are not sincere.
Those who are skilled do not dispute; the disputatious are not skilled in it.
Those who know are not extensively learned; the extensively learned do not know it.
The sage does not accumulate for himself. The more that he expends for others, the more does he possess of his own; the more that he gives to others, the more does he have himself.
With all the sharpness of the Way of Heaven, it injures not; with all the doing in the way of the sage he does not strive.
This was the origin of the Nondisputatious Sword Intent. It was a passage from ancient scriptures.
The skilled didn't need to strive. Things would naturally fall into their hands because others couldn't do what they could do. It would only be natural for the things to be given to them.
Jiuyang's realm also contained this concept. He pursued his own cultivation without being affected by anything else.
