Attacking what Envelops you. Not advantageous to act like an outlaw. Advantageous to resist being an outlaw. Harvesting.
You are fighting the very things that will bring you what you need. Do not be violent or withholding. Connect this experience to your deep roots. Lay out the city and receive the dwellers. Do not simply adapt. Something important is returning.
Richard Wilhelm
In punishing folly
It does not further one
To commit transgressions.
The only thing that furthers
Is to prevent transgressions.

Sometimes an incorrigible fool must be punished. He who will not heed will be made to feel. This punishment is quite different from a preliminary shaking up. But the penalty should not be imposed in anger; it must be restricted to an objective guarding against unjustified excesses. Punishment is never an end in itself but serves merely to restore order. This applies not only in regard to education but also in regard to the measures taken by a government against a populace guilty of transgressions. Governmental interference should always be merely preventive and should have as its sole aim the establishment of public security and peace.
