Laozi,as the founder of Taoism in the pre-Qin Dynasty,his thought of Guirou has important guiding significance for the people of his time to settle down and rule the country.As an officer of the Zhou,Laozi traversed the success or failure of history and the blessing of disaster,thus understanding the importance of the weak,quiet and modest way of doing nothing.Laozi's thought of Guirou is not only applicable to the complicated times of war,but also plays an important role in the cultivation of human beings and the adjustment of interpersonal relations.The study of Laozi's thought of Guirou is mainly divided into three parts: first,the introduction of Laozi's thought of Guirou,including an overview of Laozi's background and the description of Laozi's own experience,at the end of the Spring and Autumn period,the social unrest and the war between the countries were more than the chaos of the rulers,which resulted in the dimness of the country,the political change,the social and cultural diversity,but gave birth to a group of great thinkers who sought to save the world and save the people.Laozi is one of them,his unique experience laid the foundation for his idea of Guirou.Laozi's thought of keeping the female is unique in the pre-Qin thinkers,and Laozi's thinking of weakness is also unique in the Chinese culture which emphasizes the spirit of strength.The second is the main content of Laozi's thought of Guirou,the nature of Tao respected by Laozi is weak and indisputable,Laozi uses water,baby and other specific things to explain the weak way he respects,the soft and weak man acts like water to all things.Although water is in a low-lying and dirty place,it can help all things without boasting about it.Laozi's methodological interpretation of how to practice,understand and eventually return to the weak road of inaction,people need to jump out of the knowledge theory of dualism and stop sticking to the world of experience,close the orifices of the desire to connect with the outside world,remove the acquired selfish thoughts,paranoid prejudice against people,so as to explore inward;In dealing with the relationship between self-existence and self-consciousness and between people,we should converge our own edge and maintain a state of virtual silence,so that we can not dispute with others,always maintain a weak state,and return to the road without hindrance.The last part is the rethinking of Laozi's thought of Guirou.Laozi's Guairou thought plays an important guiding role in our return to the state of harmony between man and man,man and nature,man and society.Only by respecting Laozi's "noble and soft" way and cultivating "weak" virtue can we make ourselves grasp the body of Tao,return to the empty and quiet state,transcend the ties of foreign things,and reach the realm of harmony,spiritual freedom and not being tired of things.
