By not praising talents, we prevent people from competition; by not prizing rare treasures, we prevent people from stealing; by not looking at exciting objects, we prevent people from being troubled.
Therefore, when a wise soul rules, he empties the minds of people, fills their stomach, weakens their will, and strengthens their bones.
He is constantly making people unaware and free of desires. He makes sure the ones who have (dark) ideas do not dare to act.
He practices "Wuwei" (non-constrain), and then nothing is not well governed.
