What was written in Zhuangzi's books were basically stories. What was the essence of his philosophy?
Chuang Tzu was an ancient Chinese philosopher. His philosophical thoughts involved nature, morality, life and many other aspects. The most important one was the idea of "carefree travel". The core of the idea of "carefree travel" was that people should transcend the shackles of the secular world, get rid of the interference of utility and worry, and enjoy life freely. Chuang Tzu believed that the essence of human existence was to pursue freedom and happiness, which could not be achieved through any effort and could only be achieved through "carefree travel". Zhuangzi's thoughts also involved moral values and philosophy of life. He believed that morality should be based on the laws of nature, not on personal wishes and desires. At the same time, the meaning of life was to pursue happiness and happiness, and not to sacrifice one's freedom and dignity for a certain purpose. Although Zhuangzi's books are basically stories, through these stories, we can understand his philosophy of dry goods, that is, the idea of "carefree travel", which is of great significance to our understanding of ancient Chinese philosophy.
