工倕旋而蓋規矩，指與物化，而不以心稽，故其靈臺一而不桎。忘足，履之適也；忘要，帶之適也；知忘是非，心之適也；不內變，不外從，事會之適也。始乎適而未嘗不適者，忘適之適也。[a]

Carpenter Chui could whip stuff off like he'd done it with a compass and square because his fingers moved with things and he didn't let his mind get in the way. So his Spirit Terrace was unified and unburdened. You forget about your feet when your shoes fit and forget about your waist when your belt fits. Knowledge forgets yes and no when your mind fits. When your business fits you follow on the outside without changing on the inside. You start fitting and never don't fit when forgetting fitting fits. [1]

[1] For forgetting, see 6:09.
