Where is Lao Zi from?

Laozi is from Luyi County, Henan Province.

Laozi, surnamed Li Minger and named Bo Yang, was born in 57 1 year BC and died in 47 1 year BC. He and Li, the representative of China's modern culture and education, are called "the top ten educators who have influenced the history of China". According to historical records and many other ancient books, Laozi was from an ancient county (now Luyi County, Henan Province) in the Spring and Autumn Period. After the death of Laozi, Guxian County belonged to Chu State in the Warring States Period and to Chu State in the Han Dynasty.

Laozi served as a Tibetan shepherd in the Zhou Dynasty and was famous for his erudition. Once, Confucius went to see Zhou and asked him for a gift. At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the world was in chaos, and Lao Tzu wanted to abandon his official position and retire, so he rode a green cow westward. When I arrived at Hangu Pass, I was invited by Yin, the Commissioner of Customs, to write the Tao Te Ching. According to legend, Lao Zi lived a long life and died in the State of Qin in the fifth year of Zhou Yuanwang (47 1 BC) at the age of10/year. "Zhuangzi Master of Health" has a cloud: "Death, Qin lost, out of three."

Lao Tzu's main achievements

Laozi's achievements are mainly reflected in the book Laozi. Laozi, also known as Tao Te Ching or Tao Te Ching, the Book of Changes and The Analects of Confucius are considered to be the three masterpieces with the most profound influence on China people.

Laozi's articles are literary and have a great influence on later literature. Tao Te Ching played a highly specific literary and social role and played an important role in people's understanding of natural phenomena and social life at that time.

Literary works are the image reflection of social life. Good literary works actually represent various scenes in natural and social phenomena, reflect the economy, politics and culture in a certain historical period, describe the mental outlook of different classes, strata and characters, reflect people's various realistic relationships, and enable readers to gain various correct understandings about history and reality, society and life. Laozi has made great achievements in these aspects.
