DDJ 46. 以马观道

第四十六章
[原文]

天下有道，却①走马以粪②，天下无道，戎马③生于郊④。祸莫大于不知足；咎莫大于欲得。故知足之足，常足矣⑤。

[译文]

治理天下合乎“道”，就可以作到太平安定，把战马退还到田间给农夫用来耕种。治理天下不合乎“道”，连怀胎的母马也要送上战场，在战场的郊外生下马驹子。最大的祸害是不知足，最大的过失是贪得的欲望。知道到什么地步就该满足了的人，永远是满足的。

老子用马的取样来推导道（Laotzu Horse Indicator), 他取样观察马的用途，解释长远打算供应链，反之穷兵黩武的危害性。  ”天下有道，却走马以粪，天下无道，戎马生于郊“。 老子是女权主义的先驱。 现代多有未婚女首脑，或者怀孕女士身居高位，呼风唤雨。不知道这是有道还是无道？

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊《美国宪法》＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Since we are talking about Big Data and Dao De Jing, we might as well crunch the numbers for the Framers of the Constituion.  Since they were all men, we look at their ages and education background.  Most notably, Alexander Hamilton was younger than 35 and George Madison was barely older than 35 at the time.   What about their horses?

凡国开国N代, 守成M代，复兴L代，末世K代。每一代的阅历性格教育挫折挑战行为都大不相同。 如不同开式条件下的状态机，老子的道德经堪称解读时代状态机手册。  ”祸莫大于不知足；咎莫大于欲得。“
