一孔录The video for this chapter is still in production. For now this page gives the original text, the facsimile page, a working translation and the commentary; the full reading follows when the video is out.
子曰：二三子以我為隱乎？吾無隱乎爾。吾無行而不與二三子者，是丘也。The Master said: You, my disciples, think I am hiding something? I hide nothing from you. There is nothing I do that I do not share with you — that is who I am.
What this chapter says
一孔按：弟子疑心老师有藏着的学问，孔子说我没有什么瞒你们的，我做的一切都摆在你们面前，这就是我。圣人的教就在日常举止里。常有人问：孔子对弟子说“吾无隐乎尔”，他为什么要这样说？上面是一孔录的回答。

| 吾无行而不与二三 | “圣人之道犹天然，门弟子亲炙而冀及之，然后知其高且远也。使诚以为不可及，则趋向之心不几于怠乎？故圣人之教，常俯而就之如此，非独使资质庸下者勉思企及，而才气高迈者亦不敢躐易而进也。” | page 100 |
| 吾无行而不与二三 | “圣人体道无隐，与天象昭然，莫非至教。常以示人，而人自不察。” | page 100 |
