Idleness is the beginning of all wisdom - for Zhuangzi. Only one who does not strive for recognition and is not desired by the public leads a carefree existence. Freedom through withdrawal - the philosophy of the great master of spirituality from the 4th century BC seems tailor-made for today's "transparent" person, whose privacy is increasingly fading. Above all, it is the superiority of being over doing and of tranquility over busyness that the Daoist master teaches.
