Vast Unbiased Harmony replied, “‘A community’ [is a name that] means the joining together of the people [designated by] ten family surnames and a hundred personal names so that they collectively form a set of customs. The different is joined into the same; the same is dispersed into the different. Now, you can point to the hundred parts of a horse’s body and never come up with a horse, and yet the horse is right there, tethered in front of you; it is precisely through establishing the hundred parts that we call it ‘horse.’ Hence, hills and mountains pile up the low to make the high. The Yangzi and the Yellow River join the small to make the large. And the Great Man joins and brings all things together to make the unbiased. For this reason, that which comes in to him from outside has a host to receive it without being exclusively clung to, and what comes from within him is able to rectify other things without being rejected.
