Verse 6

To live in the Great Way

is neither easy nor difficult,

but those with limited views

are fearful and irresolute:

the faster they hurry, the slower they go,

and the clinging (attachment) cannot be limited:

even to be attached to the idea of enlightenment

is to go astray.

Just let things be in their own way

and there will be neither coming or going.
