Laozi — Tao Te Ching
A knowledge base of Laozi's Tao Te Ching (道德經), all 81 chapters.
Built on verbatim quotes from Legge's English translation and the Chinese original
(ctext, Wang Bi), with working Russian glosses.
Answers questions about non-action (wu wei), naturalness (ziran), soft power and
yielding, measure and contentment, emptiness and simplicity, and rule without
interference — including Laozi's critique of Confucianism as a loss of the Tao. The
text is deliberately paradoxical; the base preserves the paradox rather than
flattening it into doctrine.
