What does it mean, where does it come from, what is the whole sentence

The correct explanation of the Tao is as follows:

It can be simply understood that if the "Tao" can be spoken, then it is not the eternal "Tao", that is, the double negation, in short, the "Tao" cannot be spoken. In ancient times, Han Fei, Yan Zun, Wang Bi, Cheng Xuanying and others all advocated this view, believing that "the Tao cannot be spoken".

It is believed that "constant" means "constant", and that although the Tao can be spoken, the Tao is not constant and unchanging, but develops and changes. The third interpretation, "Chang", is not interpreted as "constant", but thinks:

Although the Tao can be spoken, it is not the way that people think it is.

There are also people who believe that in order to explain "the Tao is the way, the very way", it is necessary to connect the following, so that we can be more thorough. In the "Tao Te Ching" straight to the point to introduce the concept of "Tao", thinking that "the Tao is the Tao, the very Tao", it also said: the name can be famous, the very famous.

Nameless, the beginning of heaven and earth, famous, the mother of all things.

Tao Te Ching is a classic philosophical work of Lao Tzu, the founder of Taoism, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Tao Te Ching is also known as "Lao Tzu", "Tao Te Ching", of course, "Tao Te Ching" is also known as "five thousand words", "Lao Tzu five thousand words", as the name suggests, the Tao Te Ching is only more than 5,000 words, and the current version of the Tao Te Ching is the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Wei philosopher Wang Bi notes, the full text of 5162 words.

The sentence is: nothing, the beginning of all things; Yes, the name of the mother of all things; Because this is an argument for the above, the argument "name" can be justified by the use of "none" and "there is a paragraph"; With this argument and definition, the following conclusion can be made: Therefore, there is no desire for eternity.

Some people say that this kind of sentence is redundant, but in fact, it is not, because this is a definition of "existence", talking about "consciousness", "existence" is not the same as the state of things, but the state of being "conscious"; The following "whether there is or not" is also to undertake this definition, and the opening logic is meticulous, so it is necessary to break the sentence like this!

Translation: "Tao" can be elaborated, but it is not an eternal elaboration;

"Name" can be defined, but it is not a permanent definition;

Here, "Tao" and "Name" are juxtaposed, and the two are naturally connected).

So, what is the "Tao" and what is the "name"? ）

Let's talk about what is a "name" first

None, which can be defined as the state in which all things are first opened;

Yes, which can be defined as the state in which all things exist;

To use the most extreme example of "existence" to make people understand that "name" is "cognition").

Since "existence and non-existence" can be defined, then all cognition can be defined).

This is an argument for the above, and also talks about what a "name" is).

Since the cognition of all things can be defined, what is the "Tao"? ）

Therefore, if you want to get a glimpse of the initial state of things, you must maintain the original view of it (do not interfere with it); If you want the boundary properties of things, you have to keep more of a view of it (study it);

"Name" and "Tao" are of the same origin, there is no fundamental difference, only a difference in definition; Putting the two together and constantly scrutinizing (Xuan: winding like a rope), Peiheng is the basic method of peeking into the mysteries of all things.

The Tao is the way, the very way; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. Meaning:

The laws of life can be known and mastered, but they are not what we usually know. The real fame and fortune are the ones that can be obtained, but they are not the kind of "false fame" that is commonly believed.

"Tao" is the law, the law of nature, the law of life.

"Name" has two meanings in these two sentences, one is fame and fortune, and the other refers to the appearance of people or things. "Tao" is an internal and actual thing, while "name" is an external, imaginary thing, that is, what is commonly called "false name".

These two sentences tell us a truth, we must correctly understand the laws of life, and only from the laws of life can we seek real fame and fortune, that is, what Lao Tzu said "extraordinary fame".

The Tao is the way, the very way; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. "From Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching.

If the Tao can be expressed in words, then it is the "Tao" (the "Tao" can be expressed in words, it is not the ordinary "Tao").

Explanation: The truth can be told, but the truth is not eternal. Everything is in motion and changing, things change, and reason changes; As people's understanding continues to develop, so so does the truth.

Lao Tzu thinks that "the Tao is the way", and the person who makes a fool of the mystery (**) thinks that the Tao is not the way.
