"This seems to suggest that a sage has some
power in which to change things."
Gar -- So what are we to make of this in the Laozi (Chapter 29, Feng/English trans):
----------------
Do you think you can take over the universe and improve it?
I do not believe it can be done.
The universe is sacred.
You cannot improve it.
If you try to change it, you will ruin it.
If you try to hold it, you will lose it.
