synopsis
Reader of the sutra: Sw Ananda Teertha.
The sutra
Lao Tzu says:
There is nothing weaker than water but none is superior to it in overcoming the hard, for which there is no substitute. That weakness overcomes strength and gentleness overcomes rigidity, no one does not know; no one can put into practice.
Therefore the sage says: Who receives unto himself the calumny of the world is the preserver of the state. Who bears himself the sins of the world is the king of the world.
Straight words seem crooked.
