Laozi was an outstanding thinker in the late Spring and Autumn Period of China and the founder of Taoist school. He was promoted to leader, calling himself? Too old gentleman? . During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Taoism was honored as the state religion, and the royal family named Li recognized Lao Zi as the ancestor, so Lao Zi was posthumously named Emperor Xuanyuan and named Lao Zi's mother? Congenital queen mother, named the father of Laozi? The first emperor? .
According to historical records? "Biography of Laozi" and other books show that Laozi saw that the decline of the Zhou Dynasty was irreversible, and went all the way west to Hanguguan, intending to resign and retire (at that time, Luoyang kept Tibetan history, similar to the post of librarian now), and met Yin, an official guarding the pass in Hanguguan. This Yin is also a very wise person. In his early years, he was famous for observing the stars and clouds in his hometown of Ya County. One day, he suddenly saw Ziqi coming from the east and Jixing going to the west. He knew that there would be a noble person passing by here in three years, so he paid attention to observation and finally met Lao Zi. When he heard that Laozi was going to live in seclusion, he repeatedly asked Laozi to stay and write some articles for him in order to leave some spiritual and cultural wealth for the world.
Guan Ling's sincerity to Yin touched me, so I summed up my views on objective things and wrote the book Tao Te Ching.
Laozi is a wise man and a star of philosophy that has shone on China for thousands of years. Standing at the height of history, he deeply brought social life and other issues into the long history of the development of the universe, compared them, thought deeply and found something. Because I have a deeper understanding of the world, I have formed a profound and mysterious thought that ordinary people can't reach. His thought is an important pillar and part of constructing China's cultural and ideological system. Although this book is only more than 5,000 words, it is known as Laozi's 5,000-word moral classic, but it has had an immeasurable impact on politics, military affairs, economy, culture and religion in China and even the world, and it is a must-read for the Taoist school. Yin got a treasure, worshipped Lao Tzu as a teacher, followed Lao Tzu around, and finally became an immortal.
? Tao? What is the only theoretical basis in Taoism? Silence is teaching, nothingness is body, weakness is use? A kind? Tao? . Have a drink. Tao? The generation of the universe, by? The universe? Are you online? Vitality? It constitutes heaven and earth, yin and yang, four seasons and five elements, leading to all things. Good things are invisible, and everything is born from them, and the five elements are formed from them. The living have no promise, and the winner has a cloud. Lao Tzu said:? There are four laws between heaven and earth, that is, people everywhere, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature? , explain? The universe? The root of is nature. There is no life and death in the Tao, but there is life and death in the form. The so-called life and death belongs to form, not to Tao. After all, the ordinary law is to imitate her own appearance. ? Tao? Although it is a kind of? Turn a blind eye, listen and not smell, what else can you learn? what's up Born? 、? What happened? 、? Difficult to define? Something, but it is? Mother of all things? . According to? Tao? And that line, let nature take its course, reverse? Tao? However, if you go against nature, you will lose something, which implies extremely profound truth. Laozi put forward simple materialism and dialectics for the first time in the world, which provided the world with a unique perspective of observing society and thinking about life for thousands of years. Dare to suggest that if everyone can? As good as water? It is better to benefit all things, nourish all things, and build a peaceful, prosperous, prosperous and peaceful harmonious society.
? De? From where? Tao? Different from because? Tao? Is it the whole? De? It is an individual, and virtue refers to the respective characteristics of everything, such as medical ethics, military ethics, professional ethics and public morality. , so? Tao? And then what? De? * * * is related to characteristics. It is pointed out in the Tao Te Ching? Respecting Tao as virtue? Do you want it? Cultivate morality? So, what is the most fundamental belief and general principle of Taoism? Do you want to cultivate Xiu De? . ? With five elements, four latitudes, heaven and earth, yin and yang? . ? Tao? With what? De? Control everything in the universe, that is? The virtue of practicing in the body is true; The virtue of helping others is rich; It is a virtue to cultivate it in the world. ? Happy people's happiness, distressed people's suffering, anxious people's urgency, saving people's poverty, not hurting people's lives with their hands, and not persuading disasters with their mouths; Don't flatter yourself, don't praise yourself, don't be jealous, don't flatter yourself. This is a virtue. Lao Tzu further concluded:? Doing nothing by law, governing the body is beneficial to the spirit, and governing the country is beneficial to everyone. ? Everything a person does should conform to nature. First, he wants to benefit everything; Second, he should be selfless; Third, he should be modest; Fourth, he should not argue with others; Fifth, he should be broad-minded; Sixth, he should keep his word; Seventh, he should keep pace with the times; Eighth, he should be good at governing the country; Ninth, he should have a gift for doing things. We should try our best to show what conforms to the natural operation law of heaven? God bless? (so-called? Those who contend with the times prosper, and those who contend with others die? ), and the basic precept of Taoism is not to be a prisoner of wealth, sex and material desires, thus meeting the requirements of Taoism.
Laozi's classic and the theory of establishing Tao have become an important part of Chinese culture and have been passed down in China for more than 2,000 years. An 8 1 5000-word Tao Te Ching is concise and meaningful. What do politicians think? Can be the emperor's teacher? However, militarists regard it as a military book, philosophers use its dialectics, economists look for some laws from it, and writers analyze his great influence on Chinese, thus increasing the confidence of medical scientists and health care experts in studying how to prolong human life.
Laozi's self-cultivation, whose learning takes self-concealment as the service, has laid a long spiritual vein for the Chinese nation.
Today, we especially need Laozi's wisdom. In the same way, according to the original intention of Tao, we can revive the rule of virtue, return to nature and forge ahead, so that we can lead to the future, and a bright road is just around the corner.
