Tao Te Ching was written by Laozi. Lao Tzu's surname is Li Minger, and his first name is Bo Yang, or Bo Yang. At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the year of birth and death is unknown, and it was born in the county (ancient county name) of Chen (who later entered Chu) at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period in 57 BC/KLOC-0 BC.

Later, he was revered as the ancestor by Taoism and called "the old gentleman on the throne". In the Tang Dynasty, he was regarded as the ancestor of Li. Laozi is a world cultural celebrity and one of the top 100 historical celebrities in the world. Laozi served as a Tibetan shepherd in the Zhou Dynasty and was famous for his erudition. Once, Confucius went to see Zhou and asked him for a gift. At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the world was in chaos, and Lao Tzu wanted to abandon his official position and retire, so he rode a green cow westward. When I arrived at Lingbao Hangu Pass, I was invited by Yin, the Commissioner of Customs, to write Tao Te Ching.

A brief introduction to other aspects of Tao Te Ching.

The main text of Tao Te Ching takes "morality" in the philosophical sense as the key link, and discusses the ways of self-cultivation, governing the country, using troops and keeping in good health, but most of them aim at politics. It is the so-called "inner sage and outer king" theory, which has profound meaning and wide tolerance and is known as the king of all classics.

Tao Te Ching is one of the greatest works in the history of China, which has a profound influence on traditional philosophy, science, politics and religion. According to the statistics of UNESCO, the Tao Te Ching is the most widely translated and published cultural masterpiece except the Bible.
