A section from the classic of central harmony

身心世事,
Body, mind, the world, and affairs,
謂之四緣,
These are the four predestinations
一切世人皆為縈絆,
All living people are bound and tangled up by them.
惟委順者能應之,
Only by cultivating compliance can one accord with them.
常應常靜,何緣之有。
Long in accord, long quiet ,
What predestination could there be?
