释义Annotation
「淡而无味」出自《道德经》第三十五章。道的表达平淡无味。老子认为,道虽然平淡得似乎无趣,却回味无穷。正如最好的音乐不喧嚣、最深的道理不花哨——执大象,天下往。道的平淡之中蕴含着万物的真谛。
"Dan er wu wei" comes from Chapter 35 of the Daodejing. When the Tao is expressed in words, it seems bland and tasteless. Laozi teaches that although the Tao appears plain and uninteresting, its savor is inexhaustible. Just as the best music is not loud and the deepest truths are not showy — hold the great image, and the world will come to you. In the Tao's blandness lies the essence of all things.
