                                  Chapter 66
                              Leading From Behind


                                                       a
            Rivers and oceans are like kings of a hundred valleys
            Because they are good at taking the lowest place
            Thus they are like kings of a hundred valleys

            If you want to be the Master
                                   b
            You must become the Servant

                             c
            If you want to be first
            You must place yourself last

            Thus when the Son was deemed Master
                                             d
            The people did not feel burdened

            And when the Son was positioned first
            The people did not feel harmed

            Therefore, the people joyfully glorified Him without getting
                 tired of Him

                         e
            Do not compete
            And competition will not meet you
