Philosophy
◎ The book of ancient Chinese thought, 『 Roshi 』 『 Soshi 』, is actually surprisingly integrated into the life of the Japanese people. It is our ideal to live in a flexible and natural way. The proverbs that everyone knows, such as "Taiki Bansei," "Asa Sanbo Yon," "Kocho no Yume" and "Jozen Mizuno Gotoshi," all come from the teachings of the book of ancient Chinese thought, 『 Roshi 』 『 Soshi 』. The ideas of the two great philosophers, Roshi and Soshi, are collectively called "Laozi Thought". They are grand ideas that include not only how people should behave in society, but also a view of nature and cosmos. They dislike excess, do not compete with others blindly, and move away from the desire for self-expression. Cherish the present, empty yourself, and do not keep troubles and other miscellaneous matters around them. The author, who says that the teachings of Laozi have become more suited to him since he was over 60 years old, gently teaches a practical edition of Laozi Thought that anyone can do.
