Line Commentary
He dissolves his self. No remorse. Under certain circumstances, your work may become so difficult that you can no longer think of yourself. Set aside all personal desires and disperse whatever the self gathers about it to serve as a barrier against others. Only on the basis of great renunciation can you obtain the strength for great achievements.
