(4.1.1)--3.1IntroductiontoLaozi哲学概念的基本含义.pdfVIP

Appreciate Taoist culture and gain life wisdom. Today, Ill talk about the wisdom of the founder of Taoist school.My lecture consists of three aspects. One is the introduction to Laozis lifetime, that is the person-Laozi. The second is to unscramble the book Tao Te Ching. The third is to talk about the essentials of the wisdom of Laozi.
