Lao Tzu - How To Let Go (Taoism)
In this video we will be talking about how to let go from the philosophy of Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu was an ancient Chinese philosopher who is known to be the founder of Taoism and the writer of Taoism’s most sacred text, the Tao Te Ching.
So with that in mind, here are 6 things we need to let go of and more importantly how we can let them go from the wisdom of Lao Tzu-
01. Letting Go Of The Past
02. Letting Go Of The Future
03. Letting Go Of Someone
04. Letting Go Of The Desire to Rush Things
05. Letting Go Of Excess
06. Letting Go Of Your Ego
We hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope this video, how to let go, from the philosophy of Lao Tzu, will help you to simplify your life.
Taoism is a Chinese philosophy attributed to Lao Tzu which contributed to the folk religion of the people primarily in the rural areas of China and became the official religion of the country under the Tang Dynasty. Taoism is therefore both a philosophy and a religion. Taoism teaches to embrace wonder and the joy in living gracefully with style. Lao Tzu was an ancient Chinese philosopher and writer who is known to be the founder of Taoism. He is also credited as the writer of Taoism’s most sacred text, the Tao Te Ching and his words can apply to people all over the world.

Lao Tzu says “Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like”.

Seek the LORD while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near
-Isaiah 55:6
A number of years ago, I read a story about a man who set up a nativity scene on his front lawn, but some vandals came along and stole the baby Jesus. The man was quoted as saying, “They’ve taken my Jesus, and I don’t know where he is.”
I thought, “Sir, those people did not take your Jesus. They took a plastic figure, probably with a light bulb inside, that’s a representation of Jesus. But that wasn’t Jesus.”
We can’t lose Jesus, but sometimes people lose sight of the real Jesus, especially during the Christmas season. Of course, we have responsibilities, families, and things we need to do, but let’s find ways to share the real message of Christmas. It’s easy to transition a conversation to what the Christmas season is really about: the birth of Jesus Christ.
Let’s not allow the busyness of the season to crowd Jesus out of our lives. We need to slow down, listen to the Lord, and stay in close fellowship with Him. Even if you’ve been so busy that you haven’t paid as much attention to Him as you should, He’s patiently waiting for you to return.
Jesus walked in our shoes, breathed our air, died our death, and rose from the dead. Is Jesus Christ living inside you? If not, I hope you’ll soon believe in Him. He wants to forgive all your sins. He wants to be the Lord of your life, not just at Christmastime but every day of the year. He’s an everyday Jesus, and He’s here for you right now.
Jesus, who was born in Bethlehem, died on the cross, and rose from the dead, is standing at the door of your life and knocking. If you’re not sure that he’s living inside you, will you open the door and ask Him to come in?
Hey Philosophies For Life, I love your animations and youre one of the best narrators on RUclips for spiritual / philosophical content. Thank you! But I have a question, if I wanted to make some animated videos similar to this for my music... what software or apps do you recommend?
@@faith9505 Jesus is not Christ. He never told anyone he is Christ. Jesus actually specifically told us not to believe in or follow the Christ or the false prophets because they are vultures who feed on dead meat, Matt 24:23-28.
Christ the Messiah, the Son of God, is not a man but an idea, a concept which when it comes, it comes flashing like lightning from the east (China, India) to the west (Middle East and Europe). Jesus is 500 years younger than Lao Tzu. He is not a Christian nor is he a religious man. He is a Taoist, a Buddha. He loves God and loves his enemies.
May the love and the peace of Jesus be with us.
no chores/no work/no schedule, The Lord is my shepherd I shall not WANT, always be entertained without wanting. 98% of our suffering comes from not doing those.
@@resteringsalonze9303 Exactly. No chore, no work, no schedule, no money, no joy, no fun, no excitement, no sorrow, no pleasure, no love, no sex, no contribution, no threat, ... why are you still living ? What's the difference if you just die right now ?
Jesus told us to love God. If your answer is yes, why ? If your answer is no, why ?
May the love and the peace of Jesus be with us.

To everyone that find this comment, don’t give up, you are almost there. I LOVE YOU
Thank you, will try not to
Love you too!! Good luck out there
This is beautiful. Love you back!
I love you too! You got this 😊
I dont believe how many people listen to these videos, i don’t feel alone looking for comfort, learning, understanding. Thank you for being here.
1। letting go of past: let pain be in order to let it go
2। letting go of the future: appreciate what's already there
3। letting go of someone: accepting loss means chance of self growth
4। letting go of the desire to rush things: 'wu wei', take action but progress slowly
5। letting go of excess
6। letting go of your ego
1. The past did not, does not, and will not let go of you.
2. The future will not let go of you.
3. That someone let go of you first.
4. Things happen as they happen. It is not up to you, wei or wu wei regardless.
5. Excess will always be excess regardless of you.
6. You are dead without your ego.
Moral of the story is : let be but never let go, never go with the flow. Create your own flow and let others follow you. Make the inevitable inevitable.
May the love and the peace of Jesus be with us.

@@sjinzaar The initial comment and my first reply are all you need to understand.
May the love and the peace of Jesus be with us.
It seems this video was recorded specifically for me. I consider it a life raft for me at this very difficult time in my life. Thank you 🙏🏾
You are not alone. Feel free to share.
didnt ask
@@The_Dominated If you feel the need to invalidate or shut down someone’s desire to share their feelings with the world, then how are you even human? Humans adapted to have the sense of empathy in order to understand each other, as we other human beings are quite literally, the rest of the world. Humans are the only organisms that can truly understand another human being. I ask, no, beg of you to dig deeper in yourself and figure out why you feel this need to shut others down. Be better. Be human.
May God be with you! Hope life is easier now ❤

Lao Tzu's profound intellect shines through his timeless teachings, encapsulated in the Tao Te Ching. His insights on harmony, simplicity, and the natural order of the universe exhibit a depth of understanding that continues to inspire and enlighten. His wisdom transcends generations, guiding us towards a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
Letting go quickly changed my Life for better. Also when i stopped, it changed my life for worse when ego came in. Never stop the process
Lao Tzu was very wise like the Buddha and one of the greatest men in history. Thank you Philosophies for Life 4 creating consistently good content much appreciated 👍
lao tzu was buddha and jesuses teacher in past life times
Thank you
So much
For doing
This for us

My best friend passed away almost 8 years ago and I still associate Black Label Society "In This River" with him. I never would have known that song if not for him being a part of my life. R.I.P JIM I miss you bro! I see beauty in so many ways in that today.
My bestie passed away two years ago. I can't get my head around it. And can't accept it in a way....a little bit of me went with him , or so it feels
@@teachweb69 the experiences we survived, I'll never have that again. That friend that is on your level... it's once-in-a-lifetime... truly grateful!
My best friend passed May 2022. I told him not to get the vax n it gave him an aneurysm. I’m sad & mad at the same time. Mad - at this evil system pushing this poison on the world. Sad bc I love him deeply. We were soul brothers.
But I suppose the manner in which we lose our loved one doesn’t matter. Whatever the way it hurts our hearts
If I can give you any advice I say just speak to your love one all the time - just because they transitioned to another dimension doesn’t mean they’re not here with us - they are
I speak to my buddy Mario all the time and let him know how much I miss him and I hope he’s well on his journey wherever that may be right now.
Much love and strength to you brother. And never stop loving. Love is all there is!❤
@@johnnyt.sollitto512 So true, I'll never have a friend that close again. But some never do, so I am grateful for the time we had. I carry his words and memory in experiences everyday. Stay strong and carry them, let them guide you on your journey.
This was a deep breath to this moment of my life , thanks and blessing for you all
I now understand why I used to hate being alone and why I took so much crap , I’m proud to out grow such foolishness
Thank you for this reminder of the wisdom of lao tse. I followed this wisdom for years then as I got older the negative thoughts of holding on came back fiercely so thank you I'm now aware again💓💓💓
This has been the MOST beautiful and amazing video I’ve ever seen! Thank you so much for sharing this!
this video is really a gem. soooo full of wisdom. bless you
This Wisdom brought with it a sense of Peace and Solace, Truly a Beautiful gift 💝
Thank 🙏🏼 You.
The most perfect video I have ever watched on youtube. Thank you so much! What a gift!
Tao Te Ching is a short but very good book. I recommend to everyone
I needed this lesson and wisdom so bad right now. Thank you for making this video. I am ready to let go and move forward.
This was so insightful. Living in a capitalist western society sometimes feels so exhausting like I’m always chasing something. This really helped me rebalance my life. Thank you for this vid!
I've learned to let go so much that it is now impossible for me to hold on to anything lol
True and inspiring words. Please continue creating. Thank you.
I love your videos! Wise, Educative! Simple Life Knowledge! 😍
i was told years ago "if you feel like a fish out of water, remember the frist amphibian who crawled onto the mud felth the same way...and they grew and evolved to go to success.
Such beautiful insights. Thank you.
Who is the voice over for these videos? His voice is just so lovely
Today I listen this document for the first time,,I really enjoy and find very useful information about life ,,thank you
Great video!! From my experience on RUclips, I can tell that this needed a lot of time and effort, well done, keep the hard work.
Amen! Thank you for this offering!
This was beautiful !
So needed this video today we are facing the challenge of retirement and the changes that come with it.
Happy for you! Enjoy retirement.
yep there as well. trying to figure out how to hold on in my lst working years. life has changed so much. so many new faces, new people. its like i feel so old, there is no place for us oldies. and the younger inflow has so much energy, so much positivity, so much go. i feel like a bag of old coal than just can't light up, you need a really big fire to light me up, and i just can't last.
depression.. yep that's it. depression has got me thinking about what past me, what i couldnot and didnot get along the way of life.
there should be an old peoples club, not where we can complain, but where we can break free ...
wish you all the best in retirement
Thank you for your priceless work❤
Thanks, I really needed this.
beautifully explained. thank you for sharing this with us, you cant imagine how much of a good enlightening experience what you are doing are to others!
Great content! This is a life changer,good stuff!!!
MAGNIFICENT ❤️ Flow with life ✨️Reading or painting 🖼 Here and now. The present. Lao- Tzu. "Gravity is the root of lightness; stillness, the ruler of movement ♥️ Also, To him who holds in his hands(of the invisible,) the whole world repairs. Men resort to him and recieve no hurt, but (find) rest, peace, and the feeling of ease." Who needs 10 cars, multiable homes? One's ego? All things are impermanent. The rivers keep flowing to the seas. Thank you for these videos. ✨️✨️✨️
You can flow with the river for a while, but eventually you must struggle for land or you will be drowned at a waterfall or an ocean. There is no such thing as here and now because the moment you realized something happened, that is already history. There is no future either because tomorrow has not happened and may not happen as far as we can tell. Gravity ??? LOL !!! What is it ? God ? What is God ? What gravity is and what God is are unobservable and unknowable by us humans. Dao De Jing 1.1, Dao that we can described is not the eternal Dao. There is no invisible hand. There is nothing to repair. There is no hurt. There is no rest, peace, or ease. There are only cars, homes, and ego. All things are permanent except our perception. What we perceive is not real. What is real we cannot perceive. We can see, taste, smell, feel an apple or hear the sound the apple made falling to the ground (by the law of gravity, presumably). But we cannot see, taste, smell, touch, or hear the life, the DNA, or the molecules in the apple that made the apple a real apple and not just an image of an apple. What we humans can perceive is just illusions of what is real.
May the love and the peace of Jesus be with us.
Love this.💖 Thank you.
Thank for this wisdom. I also believe one should be true to oneself. Always going inside to learn about your own being, soul and mind.
Thanks for the Great wisdom
Thank you for the wise wisdom,this video is perfect for me,this is the answer that I was looking for Loa Tsu is wise man
I have read 4 different translations of the Tao Te Ching. The best was Penguin books, D.C. Lau's translation. I enjoyed this presentation very much.
Think critical,be concience aware, ask questions, take challenge on board, will to listen to others, but never let anyone force you what to think or believe 🙏
Thank you, God bless you for this lesson
Priceless wisdom ❤ God bless you for sharing 🙏
Thank you so much! Made my day! Cheers from Rome!
I love this, been practicing for awhile now. :)
Thank u for the wisdom.,universe.
"Never take your demons to bed, unless you wish to wake up with them."
Never go to bed angry, frustrated, or even sad. Remember the 10% rule.
Like water, stay liquid and mind the bends until you reach the sea.
Equinimity...❤
Brilliant advice.
This is gold!
7:04 I feel so called out because I desperately want to buy my first house and stop living in apartments. But I struggle between enjoying the moment and wanting better. It’s hard to change the thinking that it has to be one or the other.
I doesn't have to be one way or the other. It's about finding your middle ground. What works for you. You can find happiness with less stuff. Less stuff=less worry and less responsibility. If we can learn to live in the here and now,in the moment and not worry about what could happen in the future then all things are possible.i think it's about balance. The universe is about balance. (''If you love everything then you will be happiest'')😊🔆
Thank you!! 🙏🏼
Very enlightening.
A great informative talk thank you
Perfect, thanks
Thankyou 🙏🙏
Thank uu @Philosophies for life 💖
Let it go ! Let it go ! Can't hold it back anymooore ! Let it go ! LET IT GOOOOO !!!
Go with the flow to obtain happiness! The natural course of things is what needs to happen! Balance it out!
Always going with the flow can backfire. Sometimes you shouldn't
@@heavenlypath1065
Most sensible comment I've read so far.
@@heavenlypath1065….I’m basically following our philosophers lessons ….read it to find meaning and learn!
Going with the flow guarantees that you will be drown at a waterfall or at the ocean. Since all things happens inevitably, don't go with the flow but create you own flow for others to follow. Never let go. Let be and make your own inevitable inevitable, aka take charge of your own destiny and let others take charge of theirs.
May the love and the peace of Jesus be with us.
Nice video really was relaxing.
Awesomeness ✌ 😎
Thanks
Very inspirational

Unwanted habits sometimes may be subjective based on individual perception and perspective. There are times that what other deemed to be an unwanted habit is in fact what I need at that point of time. Experience is a big part of life and I don't really believe in following everything blindly to the tee as every individual is different and we are also not robots, I would rather try out everything and go with the flow to learn and define my own experiences. Building up sufficient experiences both good and bad, going through sufficient experiences both up and down in life makes you gain a more complete view about the things around you. When your understanding and view of things are more complete, you are closer to the truth as with each experiences your view and understanding becomes increasingly accurate. I think having a varied experiences offers a broader view about things while also showing you the complexity of things in real life and not everything is black and white which makes you slow to judge as you know that there is more than meet the eyes. It makes you better equip to assist others as you been through it before so you can better understand and relate even though you might not necessarily be able to solve their problem entirely since everyone is different even though we might be going through the same thing.
i loved it
THANK FATHER GOD FOR ALL YOUR LOVE,MERCY AND GRACE..AND FOR EVERYTHING IN MU LIFE AND MY FAMILIES LIFE...FILL US WITH YOUR HOLY SPIRIT SO WE CAN BETTER DO YOUR WILL AND BE OF SERVICE TO OTHERS..WE GOVE YOU ALL THE GLORY..IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS...AMEN..

my mentor taught me that you must "embrace your blind spot" and admit it. You also have to take issues like that and Buddha siad "invite your problems to tea"
The message was "in a pleasant way, FACE IT and DEAL WITH IT.
I have a partner, we are not in the same room. I admit my blind spot. When i think about how we are different sometimes, i "invite it to tea"
it brings calm.
She will get better mentally. It just requres me to be patient.
This didn’t make me feel any less bad about past relationship. Yeh, they may say that you weren’t right for them. But the thing that is painful, is why wasn’t I enough.
Nice vid
cool.
THANK YOU FATHER GOD FOR THIS AMAZING DAY ...THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR LOVE, MERCY,AND GRACE...CONTINUE TO GUIDE AND PROTECT MY FAMILIES LIFE AND MY LIFE...OVEFLOWING US WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT SO WE CAN BETTER DO YOUR WILL AND BE OF SERVICE TO OTHERS..WE GIVE YOU ALL THE GLORY..IN JESUS NAME WE PRAY..AMEN..🙏🏾❤
Goddamn i needed this
There is some degree of truth to this, but it is not as simple as it sounds, by any means!
It's definitely not easy, but you can do it. Acceptance is hard, but you have to accept reality.
Here in Tucson Arizona they never learn to let it go just beyond stupid hatred no joke it's for real.
5THANK YOU FATHER GOD FOR THIS AMAZING BLESSED DAY YOU'VE GIVEN US..THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR LOVE,MERCY,AND GRACE...OVERFLOW US WITH YOUR HOLY SPIRT SO WE CAN BETTER DO YOUR WILL AND BE OF SERVICE TO OTHERS...WE GIVE YOU ALL THE GLORY..IN JESUS NAME WE PRAY..AMEN..🙏🏾❤
I'm regarded as a slow fellow and I'm ok with that, I don't agree with society but I don't rebell against it at all, I left it behind and I don't think about it except for avoiding it so any stress about society isn't present I live free from any worrys and I have no addictions to society except food and fuel for my waggon which I live in, the only time I look into the future is when l look out my windscreen and the only time I lookin the past is when l look out the rear view mirror to change lanes, otherwise I live in the moment my life is awesome and being on my own for 60 years the first 37 years was hard and I have a few scar's but if I had to do it again I wouldn't change a thing because the rewards are something most will never see
nice
