Lao Tzu and Taoism
Number of pages:
8
ABSTRACT:
An 8 page overview of the philosophy of Taoism and the man to whom it is attributed, Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu recorded his teachings in the manuscript which would come to be known as the “Tao Te Ching”. “Tao” is translated literally to mean “the Way” or the “Way of Nature”. “Tao Te Ching” translates to mean “The Way and its Power”. The philosophy which would result did so in direct response to a number of social, political, and philosophical factors. Tao Tzu’s teachings, however, have managed to travel through time and to be reflected even in contemporary Taoism.
