Kuan tzu

At the moment, they are no available editions of the Kuan tzu, a Chinese text that is still not so well-known, compared to the Laozi or the Zhuangzi. Inside the Kuan tzu, there is a chapter where it is written how the heart governs the body as the chief governs the state. If the organs and senses submit to it, the heart can achieve an absence of desire and an emptiness that make it a receptacle of the inner heart. What would be good, would be a modern edition of this work, to elucidate this mumbo jumbo.
