Taoist symbols
The Taijitu ("yin and yang") symbol 太極圖 as well as the Ba gua 八卦 ("Eight Trigrams") are associated with Taoist symbolism. The yin and yang make an "S" shape, with yin on the right. One is likely to see this symbol as decorations on Taoist organization flags and logos, temple floors, or stitched into clerical robes. According to Song Dynasty sources, it originated around the 10th century. Previously, yin and yang were symbolized by a tiger and dragon.
英语总结老子的思想
英语总结老子的思想Laozi, also known as Lao Tzu, was an ancient Chinese philosopher and writer who is believed to have lived during the 6th century BC. He is traditionally regarded as the author of the Tao Te Ching, a foundational text of Taoism. Laozi's philosophy revolves around the concept of the Tao, which can be loosely translated as "the way" or "the path." Throughout his teachings, Laozi emphasizes the importance of living in harmony with the natural order of the universe and seeking simplicity.One of Laozi's main ideas is the concept of wu wei, which can be translated as "non-action" or "effortless action." Laozi believes that true mastery lies in understanding when to act and when to remain still. He advises individuals to let go of their desires, ego, and attachment to outcomes, and instead, to align themselves with the natural flow of events. By doing so, one can achieve a state of spontaneous and effortless action, leading to greater harmony and balance in life.Another key idea in Laozi's philosophy is the concept of wei wu wei, which means "action without action." Laozi suggests that by not trying to force or control things, one can achieve the best outcomes. He encourages individuals to embrace the virtue of humility and to live a simple and modest life. Laozi believes that by embracing this mindset, one can tap into the power of the Tao and become more in tune with the rhythms of the universe.Laozi also emphasizes the importance of self-knowledge and self-cultivation. He believes that by understanding oneself deeply and cultivating one's own inner virtues, one can become a source ofinspiration and guidance for others. Laozi encourages individuals to let go of their desires and attachments, to embrace the present moment, and to live in harmony with the natural world around them.Overall, Laozi's philosophy is centered around the idea of living in accordance with the Tao and the natural order of the universe. By embracing simplicity, humility, and non-action, individuals can achieve greater balance, harmony, and fulfillment in life. Laozi's teachings have had a profound influence on Chinese culture, as well as on philosophy and spirituality around the world. In a modern society that often values productivity, achievement, and control, Laozi's wisdom reminds us of the importance of letting go, embracing the present moment, and finding peace within ourselves.。

its full height in summer (fully yang) will produce seeds and die back in winter (fully yin) in an endless cycle.
It is impossible to talk about yin or yang without some reference to the opposite, since yin and yang are bound together as parts of a mutual whole (i.e. you cannot have the back of a hand without the front). A way to illustrate this idea is to postulate the notion of a race with only men or only women; this race would disappear in a single generation.

Water
Water is the perfect substance according to Daoism. Water always seeks the lowest point and always takes the shape of any vessel into which it is poured. Water always flows downhill, and it always flows around any obstacle. Water seems to be the weakest substance, but it’s really the strongest. A steady drip of water can wear away a rock, a stream can create a canyon, a glacier (frozen water) can create a Grand Canyon, and water in the form of a hurricane or typhoon can erode the very continents away.
Philosophical Taoism
speaks of a permanent Tao in the way that some Western religions speak of God. The Tao is considered unnamed and unknowable, the essential unifying element of all that is. By shunning every earthly distraction, the Taoist is able to concentrate on life itself. Eventually the hope is to become immortal.
Yet, men and women together create new generations that allow the race they mutually create (and mutually come from) to survive. The interaction of the two gives birth to things.
Yin and yang are always opposite and equal qualities. Further, whenever one
quality reaches its peak, it will naturally begin to transform into the opposite quality: for example, grain that reaches
道生一，一生二，二生三，三生万物。万物负阴而 抱阳，冲气以为和。 Out of Tao, One is born; Out of One, Two; Out of Two, Three; Out of Three, the created universe. The created universe carries the yin at its back and the yang in front; Through the union of the pervading principles it reaches harmony.
上善若水。水善利万物而不争
The best of men is like water; Water benefits all things And does not compete with them.
天下之至柔，驰骋天下之至坚。
The softest substance of the world Goes through the hardest.
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.

Yin and yang transform each other: like an undertow（回头浪） in the ocean, every advance is complemented by a retreat, and every rise transforms into a fall. Thus, a seed will sprout from the earth and grow upwards towards the sky – an intrinsically yang movement. Then, when it reaches its full potential height, it will fall.
