The internal foe is born from thought Comparing and labelling

It labels evil and good So what it believes itself to be May be called good So what it sees as different May be called evil

It must accumulate So it may have more than another

What it wants is good What the other wants is evil What it does is good What the other does is evil

End this thinking Do not label and compare Your battles are over

The internal foe seeks out The extremes of duality Let it lead you Remain unbalanced

Let the internal foe feed you Remain ever hungry

Let the Tao lead you Find the center Find balance

Feed from the Tao Lack for nothing
