reflection on Ch. 43 to 81 of Tao

Tao De Jing is the first complete philosophy book in Chinese History, or even in the World History. In this book, it proposes people should live in a balance of everything. For example, we shouldn’t be angry or happy; we should be feeling normal everyday. Also, it shows a way of how to rule a country for leaders. In ruling countries, it proposes that if the leader can make his people have nothing to do, he would be the best leader. In philosophy side, it says everything has two extreme sides, and whenever we reach one of the extremes, it will go to the opposite way.
This book changed Chinese people’s mind for 2,000 years. The things were taught from the book was used by the emperors in every dynasty.
