老子英文介绍ppt课件
To Laozi, resorting to deceit is true futility and would accomplish just the opposite result. Those who intend to play tricks are not genuine and therefore are not natural. Deceit is detrimental to naturalness and to the harmony of life.
to prosperity, but also the way to preserving life.

Returning to a Newborn State
★ Laozi saw the world as a madding crowd of vanity. He chose to live a simple, quite life, and to keep his mind undisturbed in the face of temptation. He said he would rather remain a “newborn baby.” ★The state of the newborn is free of any knowledge, desire, impurity or falsehood. (complete innocence)

老子 Lǎo Zǐ (circa 580-470 BC)—中国历史人物英文介绍
老子Lǎo Zǐ(circa 580-470 BC)A Legendary PhilosopherLao Zi's surname was Li and his given name was Er. Lao Zi is an honorific title. It is widely acknowledged that Lao Zi is one of the most reveredphilosophers in Chinese history. There are numerous legends about his birth, career, teaching and philosophical ideas.According to one popular legend, Lao Zi was conceived when his mother saw a star falling into her lap and he stayed in the womb for 80 years. Whenhe was born, he was already a grown man with a gray beard and long earlobes, a symbol of good fortune and longevity.He once kept the royal court archives for Zhou Dynasty (circa 11th century-256 BC). But he later resigned and went westward to propagate his ideasand philosophy.One day while riding an ox he approached the Hangu Pass and was stopped by Yinxi, a sentinel who manned the pass. As a faithful follower of Lao Zi'sphilosophy, the officer immediately recognized the great master.But, in order to ask Lao Zi to teach him something of hisphilosophy, the officer demanded the old man produce an official permit to leave thecountry.Lao Zi had no document, so he agreed to write a5,000-word essay about his philosophy in exchange for passage to the West. That essay turned out tobe the famous Daodejing (also "T ao Te Ching"), or the "Book of Virtue."Today scholars worldwide are still debating whether the book was actually written by Lao Zi or compiled by his students and disciples.However, they all agree that the book reflects Lao Zi's thinking.In the book, Lao Zi used the concept of Dao (Tao) to explain all changes in the universe. Dao, which has also been translated as "Way" or "GreatIntegrity," is deemed the mysterious source or ideal of all existences.He also put forward many dialectical ideas such as "Dao gives rise to one, one gives rise to two, two gives rise to three and three gives rise to all otherthings." He said in Daodejing: "Great talents mature slowly, great sounds are silent. Great forms look shapeless, transcendent squareness has nocorners."Other popular quotations of Lao Zi include:—All things under Heaven came from something which in turn came from nothing.—By the side of misery lies happiness and beneath the happiness lurks the misery.—A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.One day, a man came to see Lao Zi and asked for his secret of longevity. Lao Zi, then a nonagenarian, opened his mouthand asked: "Can you see anyteeth there?" The man answered: "No, not a single tooth there." Lao Zi then asked: "Can you see my tongue there?" "Yes," the man answered."All the hard teeth are long gone, but the soft tongue remains. Don't you understand now?" Lao Zi smiled.Today, Lao Zi's thinking still has a great influence in Chinese culture. Almost all young students can recite his famous words: "Dao that can be told isnot the universal Dao; The name that can be named is not the universal name."。

Wu-wei
Wu-wei literally means “non-action,” but
it doesn’t mean don’t ever move.
It means to always act in accordance with
the Dao, and not to do things that don’t
It is believed to be derived from the Taijitu (Diagram of the Ultimate Power).
Yin yang are complementary opposites within a greater whole. Everything has both yin and yang aspects, although yin or yang elements may manifest more strongly in different objects or at different times.
“go with the flow.” Water does not flow uphill—does it? No, it always flows downhill—it always finds the path of least resistance, as does a good Daoist
Yin yang constantly interacts, never existing in absolute stasis.
The concept of yin and yang is often symbolized by various forms of the Taijitu symbol, for which it is probably best known in western cultures.

老子曰：“良贾深藏若虚，君子盛德、容貌若愚。去 子之骄气与多欲，态色与淫志，是皆无益于子之身。”
Laozi's response was a critique of Confucius's teachings. Laozi tells Confucius to give up his stiff deportment and prideful airs.
孔子去，谓弟子曰：“鸟，吾知其能飞；鱼，吾知其能游； 兽，吾知其能走。走者可以为罔，游者可以为纶，飞者可以 为矰。至于龙吾不能知，其乘风云而上天。吾今日见老子， 其犹龙邪！”
