What is Philosophy as demonstrated in Ancient Chinese Philosophy as revealed by the assumptions for the solution?
The Philosophy as demonstrated in Ancient Chinese Philosophy as revealed by the assumptions for a solution is ‘Balance’ or all about the balance of things. I can say that is balance because as I read his assumptions of the solution, I can see the common ground of his verses in the given readings and it is balance. Like in the nature of opposites, one cannot work without the existence of its opposite and all things in this world has its opposites that give each other their distinction. And in the essence of Tao, one cannot use of the other when one has no space for the other or no space for something. Tao don’t choose but it wants balance on all things, like in the Tao 77 “The Tao of heaven is to take from those who have too much and give to those who do not have enough.


Tao is for everyone. Tao does not choose who side is it. Tao sees all as the same and balance. Tao does not want to see someone or something that is ahead of someone or at the back of someone because Tao is impartial like in the verse in Tao Te Ching 5 “Heaven is impartial; They see ten thousand things as straw dogs. The wise are impartial; they see the people as straw dogs.” And in the expression of the Tao, one must not be over but rather one must be balance. Like in the Tao Te Ching 9 “Better to stop short than fill to brim. Over sharpen the blade, and the edge will soon blunt. Amass storage of gold and jade, and no one can protect it. Claim wealth and titles, and disaster will follow. Retire when the work is done. This is the way of heaven.” One must be balance to show its full potential or use its full potential. Therefore the Philosophy as demonstrated in Ancient Chinese Philosophy as revealed by the assumptions for the solution is Balance.
