It's quite interesting and can make you think. I feel that some Buddhists are mixed in, but they reach the same goal through different paths. I don't know whether it is really Lao Tzu's life or the author's creation. I feel that some of the dialogues are a bit out of place, and the plot descriptions are a bit strange and overly creative, perhaps to attract readers and increase readability. Overall, worth watching. Learn dialectics and think about spiritualism and materialism. Think about what is Tao, what is truth, and what is human. Sincerity leads to spirituality. May you and I both become wise people.
It's great. The saint's Taoist teachings have a profound influence on future generations. I have benefited a lot from reading this book 👍👍👍
In the form of an easy-to-understand story, it explains the obscure and difficult-to-understand power of the weak over the strong and the soft. I like this positive energy form that spreads the traditional Chinese culture of Tao Te Ching 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This is the first time I have seen such a wonderful story about me!
It's an interesting combination of philosophy and history in the form of a novel. It's wonderful.
It is indeed a good book and deserves to be carried forward, so that everyone can be enlightened, so that the world will never have war, peace and happiness, follow the laws of nature, and let human civilization continue forever, 👍👍👍👍👍
I like this book very much. Is there a paper version available? I want to collect it, study it over and over, and learn and follow the Tao from time to time. I listened carefully to the whole book. The author interpreted Lao Tzu's legendary life through false cultivation, and beautifully presented Taoist thoughts in vivid, twists and turns and fascinating stories, which made me realize the profound connotation and essence of Taoist thoughts in a happy and nervous way. I am the Tao, just as I am the Buddha. The principles are as simple and easy to understand, but it is difficult to achieve. It is easy to identify with the Tao, and it is difficult to practice morality and uphold the Tao. The only way is to persist and persist! My sentiments are: the Tao is simple, but the human heart is in danger, cultivate the mind with the Tao, and end up with the best! This is a classic textbook on learning, understanding, and attaining enlightenment. The author is simply the incarnation of Laozi. He has profoundly studied the formation, development, and deepening of Laozi's Taoist thoughts, as well as his successes and failures in practice, and revealed the huge role and profound influence of Taoist thoughts on human society. It is worth reading again and again, but unfortunately there is no paper version. I hope the author will consider it.
The author is so talented. He seems to have seen the course of Lao Tzu's life. He seems to have come specifically for Lao Tzu. Not many people can understand the Tao that Lao Tzu has enlightened, but I am a person who has enlightened the Tao. He should be able to use simple and easy-to-understand vernacular words that the public can understand, rather than leaving everyone confused.
A very good book, worth reading
Is this really how Laozi understands his Tao Te Ching? Is this really the case? The Tao is really perfect, it is not fictitious. If so, I hope everyone can read this book. The author understands the Tao very well. Reading this article is easy to understand and I have benefited a lot. After reading this book, everything is enlightened and I have no worries. Reading other books is boring 😜. The author has great wisdom. I am really curious about what kind of person the author is and how he can write such a good article. I hope the author will give me a review
