  不言之教

  以不言说的方式施行的教化。这是老子提出的一种符合“无为”原则的教化方式。

  Influence Others Without Preaching

  Laozi advocated "influencing others without preaching" as part of his philosophy of wuwei or non-action.

  引 例

  是以圣人处无为之事,行不言之教。(《老子·二章》)(因此圣人做事顺应自然规律,不刻意干预,不强行妄为;以身作则,以行为示范而不是言语说教来感化百姓。)

  Therefore, sages deal with the world's affairs by way of non-action, and teach people without uttering a word. (Laozi)
