	Tao Te Ching
		The Dao De Jing (道德經, py: Dào Dé Jīng, WG: Tao Te Ching, also written Tao Teh Ching, roughly translated as The Book of the Way and its Virtue, see dedicated chapter on translating the title) is an ancient Chinese scripture originally named the Laozi.
		The Dao De Jing is written in classical Chinese, which is in itself difficult even for normally educated modern native speakers of Chinese to understand completely.
		At the time the Dao De Ching was written, educated Chinese who could read it would have memorized a large body of fairly standard Chinese literature, and when writing it was common to convey meaning by making allusions to other well-known works that have been destroyed or lost.

	Dao De Jing: INTRODUCTION ALONG WITH FIRST FOUR STANZAS
		Dao and de refer of course to two of the work's primary philosophical terms, the former belonging to the cosmic realm, the latter to the human.
		The Dao De Jing is the philosophical counterpart—the rival and the complement—to the Analects of Confucius.
		Dao and de are highlighted as a walking pair in the opening lines of stanza 21, in which de is described as attending or serving (cong) the Way—but in easy companionship (cong-rong), not as master and vassal (alone, cong means walking behind).

		The work is traditionally said to have been penned about 600 BC by the famous sage called Lao Zi (WG: Lao Tzu, "Old Master"), who is said to have been a record-keeper of the Emperor's Court of the Chou Dynasty; but authenticity, dates and authorship are still debated.
		In the form we have it now, the Tao Te Ching is separated into two sections (Dao and De) and in 81 chapters.
		Behind all this, Lao Zi speaks of the ineffable Dao, or the "Way", which is described as the indivisible and indescribable unifying principle of the universe, from which all flows.

	CHAPTER VI
		The Dao De Jing (Tao Te Ching) is especially important because it is one of the two trends which governed the ideology of the Chinese people for two thousand years.
		Since the dao (tao) is nameless and formless, you cannot know it as one knows things with name and form; the way to know the dao (tao) is to get rid of things with name and form step by step.
		Dao De Jing (Tao Te Ching) is the most important canon of Daoist philosophy, as well as the most important scripture of the Daoist religion.

		To describe it as "knowledge" was to imply that one had the correct dao and the shared assumption was that their own dao was correct because it was natural (tian).
		Shen Dao can be seen as rejecting the entrenched myth of the mandate of heaven with the simple observation that rulers become rulers because of circumstance, not because of their moral worth or desert.
		Their study, however, is not of a moral dao, it is the study of the actual circumstances that result in one's becoming a ruler.

	Laozi
		Dao constitutes the absolute “beginning” in that all beings have causes and conditions that derive logically from a necessary foundation.
		In the realm of Dao, principles are characterized by “naturalness” (ziran) and “nonaction” (wuwei).
		The understanding of de, however, is dependent on that of Dao, which in turn hinges on the interpretation of wu as either original substance or nonbeing.

	An analysis of Dao (Tao)
		A performance dao is metaphysical in the sense that it is part of the world--what is he case.
		Combining neutral reference to performance dao with the collective or mass property of dao yields the familiar metaphysical dao--"all that is the case." Each discourse dao implicitly points to and prescribes a particular future history to its audience.
		Daos (in the ordinary normative sense) are what ultimately guide us and our problem is deciding which dao to use and how to interpret that dao.

		Laozi was the legendary author of the Dao De Jing, a collection of prose and verse wisdom literature that is considered the seminal and essential work of Daoism.
