In this episode, The Bearded Mystic Podcast discusses the wisdom of the Chinese Sage Lao Tzu. I go through the first two verses of the Tao Te Ching that are attributed to Lao Tzu.
Lao Tzu was a Chinese philosopher credited with founding the philosophical system of Taoism. He is best known as the author of the Laozi (later retitled the Tao-Te-Ching translated as “The Way of Virtue” or “The Classic of the Way and Virtue”) the work which exemplifies his thought.
The name by which he is known is not a personal name but an honorific title meaning 'Old Man' or 'Old Master' and the debate continues as to whether an individual by that name ever existed or whether Lao Tzu is an amalgam of many different philosophers.
