Description from the seller
Lao Zi (Chinese: 老子), originating from (jiaxiang) Henan, Zhoukou, Lüyi County, was a Chinese philosopher, who is usually placed in the 6th century BC, during the Spring and Autumn Period, 604 BC - 507 BC. He is, according to Taoism itself, the most important founder of Taoism. It is possible that he later lived in the 5th or 4th century BC, during the Warring States Period. It is also possible that Lao Zi refers to two or more masters or a school of thought.
