Halte den Sinn dir frei von allem, was war und geschehen,
denn an Vergangenes denken, erweckt nur Gewissensplagen.
Halte den Sinn dir frei von allem, was noch mag geschehen,
denn an Zukünftiges denken, erweckt nur Unbehagen. –
Kommt Nahrung, so öffne den Mund;
kommt Schlaf, so schließe die Lider.

Po Chü-I
