Everything is that in relation to other

Beneath this relativity is the view that
there is an underlying unity of things
that transcend all these distinctions, theDao.

relativity of all things because at bottom
these distinctions are no distinctions.

By we mean a conditionthat is easily changed and quickly gives
place to its opposite. Thus heat, cold,
disease, health and so on are
dispositions. For a man is disposed in
one way or another with reference to
these, but quickly changes becoming

ideas and ambitions and social systems,
