Zhuangzi, famous Zhou (about 369 BC - about 286 BC)

He was a philosopher and essayist during the Warring States Period and a Mongolian native of the Song Dynasty. He once served as an official in Mengqi Garden, but soon resigned. "Historical Records" says, "King Wei of Chu heard about Zhuang Zhou Xian and sent him a large amount of money to welcome him, promising him to be his prime minister." However, Zhuang Zhou did not accept it. Never be an official for life.

Zhuang Zhou lived in poverty all his life. He lived in a back alley. He often borrowed food from others, wove his own straw sandals, wore coarse clothes and worn shoes, and was willing to live alone. He inherited and carried forward Laozi's thoughts, and was a representative figure of the Taoist school like Laozi, and was known as "Laozi and Zhuangzi" in the world. Zhuangzi believes that there is no essential difference between all things in the world, regardless of size, nobility, longevity, life and death, good and evil, gains and losses, honor and disgrace, they are all relative.

1. The idea that "the way of heaven is inaction"
