Laozi - Lao Tzu

Laozi, also romanized as Lao Tzu was a Chinese philosopher and author of the Tao Te Ching, one of the foundational texts of Taoism. The name, literally meaning 'Old Master', was likely intended to portray an archaic anonymity. A central figure in Chinese culture, Laozi is generally considered the founder of Taoism.

Empty yourself of everything. Let the mind become still. The ten thousand things rise and fall while the Self watches their return. They grow and flourish and then return to the Source. Returning to the Source is stillness, which is the way of nature. - Lao Tzu

Be still. Stillness reveals the secrets of eternity. - Lao Tzu

Returning is the motion of the Tao. Each separate being returns to the common Source. Returning to the Source is serenity. - Lao Tsu

Never stop leaving and you will arrive. Stop searching and you will see. Stop running away and you will be found. - Lao Tzu

Worlds and particles, bodies and beings, time and space: All are transient expressions of the Tao. - Lao Tzu

At the centre of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want. - Lao Tzu

Don't think you can attain total awareness and whole enlightenment without proper discipline and practice. This is egomania. Appropriate rituals channel your emotions and life energy toward the light. Without the discipline to practice them, you will tumble constantly backward into darkness. - Lao Tzu
