Tao Te Ching is a valuable legacy left by Laozi, a famous thinker in ancient China. The thoughts of "softness" and "nature" advocated by Tao Te Ching occupy an extremely important position in China's traditional cultural thought, and they are closely related to the thoughts of "softness" and "slowness" in Taiji Zhuan.
