  Kids.Net.Au - Encyclopedia > Lao Zi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Lao Zi (老子 lao3 zi5, also spelled Lao Tzu, Lao Tse or Lao Tze in Wade-Giles), was a famous Chinese philosopher of approximately the 4th century BC.
Lao Zi believed that violence should be avoided when possible, and that military victory was an occasion to mourn the necessity of using force against another living thing, rather than an occasion for triumphant celebrations.
Although Lao Zi does not have the same influence as Confucius in China, he is still respected by the Chinese.

 Di Zi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Most di zi are made of Bamboo, which explains why di zi are sometimes known by simple names such as 'The Chinese Bamboo Flute'.
In truth, although bamboo is the common material for di zi, it is also possible to find di zi made from other kinds of kinds of wood, or even from stone.
Jade di zi (or yudi) are popular among both collectors interested in the almost magical beauty of jade di zi, and among professional players who seek an instrument with look that matches the quality of their renditions.

 Daoism - introducing the main ideas of Lao Zi and Chuang Zi
It could be argued that Lao Zi's quasi-anarchistic approach might be appropriate for some individuals, but that it is not a profitable pursuit for society at large.
By using esoteric paradoxes and elusive riddles, Chuang Zi displayed the logical contradictions at play in daily life and language, and thereby succeeded in justifying the possible role of Daoism for everyday society.
When people are allowed to fully express their natural ability, Chuang Zi claims, there is no need for government, since it is a law of nature that people will be able to find their own levels of relative happiness.

zi (which i am hosting on my webspace) was developed by alan gordon as a class project.
zi has a bit of panel de pon mixed in, though—you can drag tiles to rearrange them before clicking to remove them.
in addition to the standard game, zi includes a “trendy” game mode which is an homage to mizuguchi’s meteos—in each stage the player has to cope with different conditions, like color-changing tiles, low gravity, and delayed matches.

 Sun_Zi biography
The Ruan Yuan in his Chouren zhuan or Biographies of astronomers and mathematicians (1799) certainly realised that references in certain problems in the Sunzi suanjing meant that the identification with Sun Wu was incorrect.
He placed Sun Zi around 250 BC but knew that there was still problems with this dating which he said would have to be studied later.
Xu argues convincingly that Sun Zi's procedure differs from the earlier method in significant ways and so should be recognized as an outstanding and original contribution.

For Xun Zi, the universe is not a moral one, heaven and earth follow their separate rules from the human world, and there are basic rules governing leadership.
That Xun Zi believes in the need for rulers to master the skills of leadership can also be seen in his discussion of heaven.
Xun Zi's heaven is one with constant laws, which we could call "laws of nature" that humans need to conform to in order to be good rulers.

 Mo Zi and
As can be seen from our readings on Fung's chapter on Mo Zi, Confucius and Mo Zi resembled each other in some ways, such as in their adherence to the ideas of ren/jen (humaneness) and yi (righteousness), although their interpretations of the two concepts differed.
Different definitions of leadership: for Confucius, it was being moral and following the tradition; for Mo Zi, it was dedication to his job, which primarily was to fill the treasury, leading to grace from heaven and the state would become strong and prosperous (66-67).
Mo Zi's view of human nature: (72-73) the way he talked about human beings knowing everything, but just not correcting their mistakes, seems to support the argument that he does not believe in an ethical human nature.
