Shudan Guan Posted March 21, 2024 Report Posted March 21, 2024 Lao Zi, one of the great ancient philosophers in China proposed a utopia in his opinion: a small country with a small population, where people don’t need to travel far on carriages or ships; there’s no war so people need not sacrifice themselves; people work on the field they like, lives comfortably, happily, and safely. This country is close to neighbouring countries but does not interact with them. [Annotation] 安居: Live safely and comfortably. 乐业: Work happily. [Definition] Refers to a condition that people all live safely and comfortably, working in the field they like. * If you are interested in Chinese folk tales or ghost stories, have a look at: https://chinesestoriesfolktales.quora.com Quote
