Help explain~~What does it mean to be as calm as the water and treat it by doing nothing?

Heart as still as water:

Explanation describes a calm state of mind without distracting thoughts.

Source: Tang Dynasty·Bai Juyi's "Essays on the Tribute to Li Shilang": "In the vast world, right and wrong are on the same track; teeth are grinding against each other, and waves are everywhere. Who is alone in the public, my heart is as calm as water; the wind and rain are like darkness, and the cock crows endlessly." ”

After experiencing repeated changes in love, she has become ~, and there is no wave in the ancient well.

Government by inaction:

Explanation of inaction: doing nothing; governance: governance. The world is governed by oneself doing nothing. It originally meant that when Shun was in power, he followed Yao's ideas without making any changes. Later, it generally refers to transforming people with virtue.

Source "The Analects of Confucius·Wei Linggong": "Those who rule by doing nothing will be like Shun?"

"Inaction" as a political principle has appeared in the late Spring and Autumn Period. It was Laozi who systematized "governing by doing nothing" and made it a theory. They believe that everything the ruler does will destroy the natural order, disrupt the world, and harm the people. The rulers are required to do nothing, follow nature, and allow the people to develop freely. The theoretical basis of "governing by doing nothing" is "Tao", and the practical basis is to transform "chaos" into "governing"; the main content of "governing by doing nothing" is "doing nothing" and "doing nothing without doing anything", and the specific measures are " Advise rulers to interfere less” and “make the people ignorant and desireless”.

Of course, the "inaction" of governing by doing nothing is by no means doing nothing or doing nothing. The "inaction" of governing by doing nothing means not doing anything rashly, not doing anything arbitrarily, and not doing anything contrary to the Tao. On the contrary, for things that are in line with the Tao, you must do something. But whatever you do should come from the nature of things, and what you do not do comes from nature and follows nature; it is done by nature, not by man. Therefore, this kind of behavior will not only not destroy the natural process and natural order of things, but also be conducive to the natural development and growth of things.
