Zhuangzi combined "Tao and man" closely, making "Tao" the highest realm of life; The "Tao" he is concerned about is people-centered, and it is explained from human life, human spirit and human heart.

Zhuangzi introduced:

Zhuangzi (about 369 BC-about 286 BC), a famous Zhou, was born in the Song Dynasty during the Warring States Period (according to legend, he was a civil right in Shangqiu, Henan, Dongming, Shandong, and Mengcheng County, Bozhou, Anhui). Thinkers, philosophers, writers and Taoist representatives in the mid-Warring States period were also called "Laozi and Zhuangzi".

Zhuangzi should not be employed by Chu Weiwang because he stands for freedom. He only worked as a lacquer garden official in the Song Dynasty, and was known as the "proud lacquer garden official" in history, and was regarded as a model of local officials. His earliest thought of "sage inside and king outside" had a far-reaching influence on Confucianism. He has a profound insight into the principles of the Book of Changes, pointing out that the Book of Changes is based on the way of yin and yang, and his three-tone thought is consistent with the way of three talents in the Book of Changes.

His literary imagination is rich and peculiar, his language is freely used, he is flexible and changeable, and he can write exquisite and unspeakable philosophies, which is called "literary philosophy, philosophical literature". His works are included in the book Zhuangzi, and his representative works include Free Travel, Theory of Everything, Master of Health, etc.

According to legend, Zhuangzi tried to live in seclusion in Nanhua Mountain and was buried here. Therefore, at the beginning of Tianbao, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was named as a South China True Man, and the book Zhuangzi was also regarded as the South China True Classic.

Influence of later generations:

Zhuangzi Thought had a profound influence on China's later philosophy, art and religion. Zhuangzi contains profound ideological content and superb literary level, which has a far-reaching and great influence on later thinkers and writers.

There is a long list of people influenced by Zhuangzi in terms of ideology, style of writing, article system and writing skills. Among the first-class writers, there are Ruan Ji, Tao Yuanming, Li Bai, Su Shi, Xin Qiji and Cao Xueqin, which shows the great influence.

Later, Taoism inherited Taoism, and after the evolution of Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Laozi and Zhuangzi School replaced Huanglao School as the mainstream of Taoism. Feudal emperors paid special attention to Zhuangzi's important contribution in the history of China literature and thought, and deified Zhuangzi as a god. In February of the first year of Tianbao in Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty (742), it was named "South China Real Person", and later people called it "South China Real Person".
