Description: Born during China's turbulent war rampant era in Chen Kingdom (in today's Luyi County, Henan province) around 570 B.C., this great librarian/thinker, learns and draws the way it is from nature and develops doctrines of Taoism. And upon the push of his old friend Guan Yin, he writes a significant book -- Dao de jing -- which becomes a classic for Chinese scholars.
