Misunderstood: 相手 actually knows not of its true self
Great Humility: Knows of 相手's greatness, & accepts it
Great Insight: Knows beyond 相手 ousia & pretends not to
Great Patience: Would let 相手 go—the end may come later
Embrace: 自分 encompasses all—相手 need not resist
He just stood there, 相手's attacks simply dissipating into fluff
Because he needn't do anything
He's the end
A thing 相手 can only delay, not stop
Yet, an epiphany he gives 相手 at the end
He's not the end, he's The Great Dao where all rivers (paths/daos) eventually return to
"Be not afraid"
& so, there's need to force it
相手's path leads right to his blade, unmoving
Will you return now, or later?
