Tao Te Ching is a book that was written around 6th century BC by the Taoist sage Laozi, a record keeper at the Zhou Dynasty court by whose name the text is known in China. The Tao De Ching is fundamental to the Taoist School of Chinese Philosophy as well as Chinese Buddhism.leaf

Many Chinese artists, including poets, painters, calligraphers, and even gardeners have used the Tao Te Ching as a source of inspiration. Its influence has also spread widely outside East Asia, aided by hundreds of translations into Western languages.

Depending on how the Tao Te Ching is interpreted, some ambiguous passages have multiple readings, ranging from political advice for rulers to practical wisdom for people.
