Abstract

This paper discusses the fundamental principles of quantum physics and postulates that there are many parallels between quantum physics and Laozi's teaching in Dao De Jing. The paper argues that while quantum physics opens up a new understanding of Daoism, Laozi pushes way beyond quantum physics in teaching us about the mysteries of life and the cosmos; and Laozi has laid out meditative and virtue-based cultivation methods for us to reach the invisible, energetic realm of reality, and be united with Dao. Educational implications are contemplated upon.
