What are Zhuangzi's four words advocating inaction and avoiding the world?
Zhuangzi advocates the idea of governing by doing nothing: conform to the heaven, enter the WTO by doing something, and cultivate the mind by doing nothing, so that the world of mortals can have peace.

Zhuangzi opposes etiquette and law and all "universal" social morality. Because Zhuangzi thinks that people are different from each other, the so-called universal morality is nothing more than cutting off the feet and suppressing people's natural nature.

It doesn't matter that everything has its own nature. As long as they fully and freely exert their natural abilities, they are also happy. For example, the happiness of birds is the singing of branches, and the happiness of geese is the migration of thousands of miles. Everyone has his own happiness, but as long as everyone realizes freedom, they are equally happy.

Main influence

philosophy

Zhuangzi inherited and developed Laozi's philosophical thought of "Taoism is natural", which made Taoism a real science. He himself became an important representative of Taoism and was called "the ancestor of Taoism" with Laozi.

Zhuangzi's knowledge is rooted in Laozi's words, so his books are more than 100,000 words, most of which are fables, such as Fisherman's Father, Stealing Foot, and Wadang, which are all used to identify Laozi's thoughts. He led "noble life" and "for me" to "mature life" and "selfless", which was attributed to the natural unity of Tao and me. Zhuangzi, Zhouyi and Laozi are also called "San Xuan", which has high research value in philosophy.
