By not exalting the talented you will cause the people to cease from rivalry and contention.

By not glorifying goods difficult to obtain, you can give cause for people to cease from robbing and stealing.

By not advertising what is unobtainable, you will cause people's hearts to remain undisturbed.

Therefore, the Sage's way of governing begins by:

Emptying the heart of desires, Filling the belly with food, Weakening the ambitions, Toughening the bones.

In this way he can help the people to be without desires

And prevent the knowledgeable ones from over activity.

Practice non activity and everything will be in order.
