[Note: I italicize phrases I borrow from the chapter, and link to phrases I borrow from other chapters to help tie chapters together. While making it more tedious to read, the Tao Te Ching is best pondered in the context of the whole.

Declarations like 'One who excels in traveling leaves no wheel tracks' inspired a lot of the spiritual quackery we find throughout history. I mean, the child within wants to believe in the 'Harry Potter', the 'walker on water', the 'sage', and such. Here we have the 'Taoist Sage' who is so stealthy he makes no slips. As a parent, I found a good balance was neither to bolster nor invalidate my children's belief in 'Santa Claus'. Chapter 65 tells us to not use [the way] to enlighten the people but to hoodwink them. Certainly, doing either intentionally is loaded with cleverness. In challenging beliefs am I 'attempting to enlighten'? Of course maybe I’m misleading people, but that would be hoodwinking I suppose. Maybe I’m hoodwinking everyone no matter what I do. After all, one who knows does not speak; one who speaks does not know. So should I keep my mouth shut? Ah, but that would be no fun! Maybe someday, when I'm old enough to know better.

In the meantime, here's my literal translation of the Chinese: (*)
adept at go (prevail, circulate, do) without wheel rut (way, idea) mark (trace, outward sign).
adept at speech without flaw (have no time) blame (censure, banish).
adept at enumerate (list, count) not use counter (plan) strategy (bamboo slips for writing)
adept at shut (close, obstruct) without shut lock yet not can open
adept at tie (knot, form, conclude) without arrange (restrain) yet not can divide (explain, interpret).
is use (take, because, as well as) wise person
always adept at rescue (save, help) people, reason (cause) not discard people.
always adept at rescue (save, help) things, reason (cause) not discard things.
is say (call, meaning, sense) follow the pattern bright (clear, honest, open).
reason (cause) adept at people, not adept people of teacher (model, example).
not adept at people adept at people of support (natural ability).
not value its teacher, not love its support,
although wisdom, big confused (perplex, fascinate),
is called important (essential, want) wonderful (subtle, excellent)

And my feeble attempt to take out some of the twists and turns:
Adept at prevailing without the trace of an idea.
Adept at speech with no time to blame.
Adept at listing without a plan or paper.
Adept at closing without locking yet cannot be opened.
Adept at concluding without restraining, yet cannot be explained.
Using this, the wise person is:
Always adept at helping people because he discards no one.
Always adept at helping things because he discards nothing.
This says he follows the pattern honestly.
Thus, those who are adept are models for those not adept.
Those not adept support those who are adept.
Neither value the model nor love the supporter.
This wisdom, although perplexing,
Is called an essential subtlety.

(*) Don't forget, the words in parenthesis are a character's other principle meanings. Also, note that the Tao Te Ching isn't telling us something we don't already know. The more muddled, drowsy and blank the mind, the better we can access that which we don't 'know' that we know. This helps get thinking out of the way of knowing. (I know, it is just so weird... but wonderful!)
