: ( ti dao zhe é““¹ŽÒ ) does
: not take the dao itself to be
: "noble," nor does she take her
: self to be noble. To deem something noble

Hi rat,
Sounds like that works fine for a ti dao zhi. (-:
My take is that dao is noble, but not more noble than anything else. Sometimes things are high, sometimes things are low. Should dao be fixed into an idea of 'not noble'? Should we be fixed into an idea of non-simultaneousness?
warm regards, and apologies for that last made-up word. LOL
