| The 12 Norms | |
| 1: | To go against the evolution of things is to go against yourself. |
| 2: | When you force something toward an end, you produce the contrary. |
| 3: | Do not oppose a great force. Retreat until it weakens, then advance with resolution. |
| 4: | Things go well when they move together, not in isolation. |
| 5: | If day and night, summer and winter are good with you, you have surpassed the contradictions. |
| 6: | If you pursue pleasure, you enchain yourself to suffering. But as long as you do not harm your health, enjoy without inhibition when the opportunity presents itself. |
| 7: | If you pursue an end, you enchain yourself. If everything you do is realized as though it were an end in itself, you liberate yourself. |
| 8: | You will make your conflicts disappear when you understand them in their ultimate root, not when you want to resolve them. |
| 9: | When you harm others you remain enchained, but if you do not harm anyone you can freely do whatever you want. |
| 10: | When you treat others as you want them to treat you, you liberate yourself. |
| 11: | It does not matter in which faction events have placed you. What matters is that you comprehend that you have not chosen any faction. |
| 12: | Contradictory or unifying actions accumulate within you. If you repeat your acts of internal unity, nothing can detain you. |
| Peace is Force | |
