Chapter: Weak Points and Strong

6.9

Translation:

O divine art of subtlety and secrecy! Through you we learn to be invisible, through you inaudible; and hence we can hold the enemy’s fate in our hands.

Commentary

When you use camouflage, secrecy and other ways of cloaking your positions and intent, you can act at will, even from within enemy territory.

The original words for this paragraph talk about ‘without form or sound’. how can you attack a formless enemy?
