Taoist governance by inaction does not mean inaction or doing nothing, but not too much intervention. It is relatively free in thoughts and actions. There are not too many rules to restrain people and they can give full play to themselves. The ability to create and realize the value of one's own thoughts is the true "governing by doing nothing".

"Governing by doing nothing" comes from the "Tao Te Ching". It is Laozi's most loyal warning to the king, and it is also the Taoist philosophy of governing the country. The "Tao Te Ching" mentions: "I do nothing, and the people take care of themselves; I like to be quiet, but the people are upright; I have nothing to do, and the people are rich; I have no desires, and the people are simple." What is emphasized is that as long as you do not violate social concepts and follow the natural laws of all things in the world, you can do whatever you want. Don't interfere too much with your actions and thoughts, let things happen naturally, and they will always develop in the direction you expect.

"Governing by doing nothing" does not have a negative meaning. It gives people more power. In the eyes of Laozi, everything has a nature, but the nature is different, and everything has its own nature. It is your own nature, so you must follow the nature of all things, do not restrict it too much, and let nature take its course to achieve greatness.

The Taoist concept of "governing by doing nothing" is still controversial. Some people think that it means doing nothing and doing nothing, while others think that the officials do nothing and the people do something for themselves. In fact, it does not mean doing nothing. , but just go with the flow and things will fall into place naturally.

The highest good is like water. Lao Tzu believes that all things are like a calm lake. The water will flow by itself. Obviously, nothing has been done, but everything has been done. It is just following the trend. Everything has a "Tao". Seeking, everything comes from "Tao" and "Tao" can accomplish everything.
