Tao te Ching


The Toxicity of Blame

Harboring a resentment
Is sure to leave some resentment behind.
How can this be good?
It cannot.
Therefore, the wise
Accept all responsibility.

Although those who hold the power
Keep blaming and bleeding the people,
The violated Great Integrity blames no one.
Once achieving the Great Integrity,
We will all function with a pure heart.

Verse 79
