Then, Mr. Lu introduced the writing purpose and some important thoughts of Tao Te Ching, especially on the four thoughts of Dao(the way) and De(the virtue) , Being and Non being, Inaction and No fighting and Doer like water (Highest good is like water benefits all things without striving for fame) to lead everyone to learn the rich truth contained therein. At the same time, Mr. Lu led the students to compare the differences between Lao Tzu and Confucius in their attitudes towards current politics and even life. Following that, each group student showed with composure, stability , and novelty by speeches, PPT, videos, and other forms and shared their understanding of Lao Tzu and his thoughts which fully displayed their unique foreign language mien and spirit.
