In all my years, I've never heard teachings and philosophy that spoke to me as much as this very thing. Whether he be real or simply an act of fiction, Lao Tzu was indeed wise. I look forward to reading his words for myself and implementing his teachings into my life.
What a not coincidence! Yesterday, I had a question to a riddle by none other than Lao Tzu. I decided to skip it for later. Here I am less than 24 hours later and who is the video that I am watching (after finding this site today and watching 4 others of the oldest videos) about? Of course Lao Tzu. Chances are about zero, that I would find the answer to the riddle. Well it turns out the answer is here. That shows that when you need an answer, just relax and it will find you. Really like this site.
Less Is More - This one just might be one of the ideas that most contrasts with our western way of thinking nowadays. The main concern here is always getting "more" - People overworking to get more money than they need, eating more than they need, owning and wanting more objects than they need, making themselves appear as more than what they actually are, speaking too much without having that much to say, and so forth. And apart from these material excesses, our very concept of ambition also seems to conflict with the idea of minimalism that the Tao presents. Ambition is an essential motivator to most people, however, we've been taught for too much time to supplant our lives with outwardly predetermined ambitions that mostly follow the line of consumerist thinking and behavior, where the excess is glorified and we can never be satisfied with what we already have.
I’ve never read anything quite as mesmerizing and enlightening as ZhuangZi. I think it’s the most profound religious text I’ve ever had the pleasure of contemplating.
to 5, there is no need to give up on things, but to learn that matters(nothing, life is a wave) you have to stand over or beside your ego and accept it like your body and other people and the world.
taoism is about doing whatever the fck you want and enjoy and not letting it bother you...it is about enjoyment of life with balance and control...not doing nothing and not doing too much...a taoist can drink alcohol or indulge in a drug...can have sex...anything part of the human experience is valid and viable...toaism is guilt free living...partaking in pleasure is not separate from the thoughtless bliss of meditation...involvement in details is not separate from the nothingness all details seem to exist in...the taoist gets immersed in duality...in the opposites while knowing the two beget endless multiplicity which is nothingness which is one power which is twoness and so on...for the taoist everything is nothing and nothing is everything
@@kevinstone5018 not about guidance or advice really...just a statement...hey words are just words...we read em and let em go cause they have meaning due to relativity and subjectivity and they mean nothing due to all being forgotten about in time
I do like to practice mindfulness, meditating, and breathing exercises. But, I also get a good rush from working hard throughout the day. For some reason, one that I can't explain, I love that "hustle" of working hard throughout the day almost like the rat race. It's a weird combination of the two but that's my life right now. I know I'll probably get burnt out from working hard like this, so I'll try to look back to this video one day and try to achieve happiness from within. Another great video man, I really enjoyed this one!!
Thanks Sean! Absolutely! I do enjoy working hard and growing to later reap the benefits, it does have that kind of thrill as you say. You are already doing quite a lot to achieve inner-calmness with mindfulness and breathing exercises :). Taoism also includes that, and is also more of a way of life, that also has interesting outputs on our behaviors and to achieve that inner calmness. Appreciate your support.

Wuji moves And produces Taiji. Taiji returns to Wuji When the former becomes still. All things in the universe go like that: They eventually return to nothingness. Nothing comes from nothing is not true Because everything comes from an infinitely small point of singularity called Big Bang. What is infinitely small ? It is actually 0=nothing.

I feel I can finally begin my journey following the Dao. It’s about simplicity and balance
I was on the verge of despression for some days now. Although I was already a bit aquainted with Lao Zi, your video managed to tip the scales.
In all my years, I've never heard teachings and philosophy that spoke to me as much as this very thing. Whether he be real or simply an act of fiction, Lao Tzu was indeed wise.
I look forward to reading his words for myself and implementing his teachings into my life.

Loved this made me feel more calm and less worried.
Awesome. So glad it helped!!
Do not be romanticized on achieving, but rather enjoy the journey. Keep going, and don’t give up. Amazing🙏❤️
Yes! Thank you so much.
There's wisdom for a lifetime in Taoism, love this.
Absolutely! Thanks so much for watching.

really enjoyed Taoism, have to read the Tao Te Ching now!
Thanks very much. A great book :)
Nailed all the subconscious things I learned in the military.

This channel deserves way more likes. Keep up the great videos.
I just discovered your channel today, and was curious about your first video. This is amazing and I will be binge watching every single video
I was able to retire at age 56, and I have enough. I read the Tao at a very leisurely pace, over, and over, for about two years now.

Taoism (much like Stoicism) is philosophy were basically anyone can take some benefit out of it.
Great video GBC. Love keeping up with your uploads. Lots of good info :)

Thanks for the support!! Those pink petals I used a video of them and lowered its transparency so it overlaps with the other video clip :)
@@Eternalised ah now i see, thats kinda what I did for my lao tzu quote video aswell!
Great channel
Eastern philosophy seems to me much more appealing than the West.
It truly is very interesting and different. Always good to have an open mind and try out different ones.
Western philosophy also has Heraclitus, Nietzsche and Jung who are every bit as fascinating as Lao Tzu and Chuang Tzu.
Also there are Thomas More and Jean Jacques Rousseau who share many similarities with Lao Tzu regarding natural and political views.

to 2. try to understand, then to care about other people and you become free.
Thanks
to 4. there is only the flow. title, riches, fame all this becomes burden with time and takes parts of yourself chained to the ground.
Very good.
Oh man great video! Great info and message. How long did it take you to put this one together?? 👍
Thank you for your kind words! It took around 3 days to research, read the Tao Te Ching and edit.
GoldBlockCareer dang ok not too too long but still a good amount of time dedicated to it 👍
Wuji moves And produces Taiji.
Taiji returns to Wuji
When the former becomes still.
All things in the universe go like that:
They eventually return to nothingness.
Nothing comes from nothing is not true
Because everything comes from an infinitely small point of singularity called Big Bang.
What is infinitely small ?
It is actually 0=nothing.
