Heaven above Lake — moving carefully in relation to something much stronger. "Treading on the tiger's tail: it does not bite the person. Success." The tiger doesn't bite because the movement is correct — aware, light, appropriate to the situation. Not fearless, but not paralyzed by fear either. The path through precarious situations is attention and appropriate behavior, not force.
