[quote=STELLA8455,256956]Hi, I'm a Korean girl. Every highschool students study Taoism at shcool without exception.We have a curriculum which covers oriental philosophy. So I'm understanding a little about Taoism. At the age of civil wars, from B.C. 403 to B.C. 221, there had been big and long wars in China. Because many people hated the war, so they renounced the world and hid in mountains. Lao-tzu was one of them. He said the greed for money, power and honor led to wars, so to stop wars people had to get rid of their greed. He emphasized "nothingness". Thesedays, it still is hard to get rid of greed, I think. Even though there are no disordered wars, but we're living in the age of limitless competition. And China is not an exception. China is gradually taking the market economy. This will cause much bigger competition.[/quote]
