Lao-tzu (translated as The Old Master) is considered to be the father of Taoism. He wrote a book - Tao-te ching (the Classic about the Tao and its Characteristics) - which describes the Taoist Way and its main concepts such as tao, yin-yang, wu and wu-wei. Unfortunately the book is written in a cyphered language so that its meaning is difficult to grasp. This course is intended to teach you the Tao-te ching: its structure, concepts and meaning. Also you will learn about the biography of Lao-tzu and the historical meeting of Lao-tzu and Confucius.
