"Once upon a time, I dreamt I was a dachshund [...] unaware that I was myself. Soon I awoke [...]. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a dachshund, or whether I am now a dachshund, dreaming I am a man."
– *not Zhuangzi (he was in fact a dachshund)
@SabinaKnight1 “Rather than using words to conceptualize, categorize, and artificially differentiate between right and wrong, benefit and harm, self and others, the Zhuangzi encourages attending to an undifferentiated whole.“
Foundations: ethics, parables, and fish,” Ch. 1, #VSI, p. 20.

I feel bad for Hui Shi. Nowadays he's known as a pointless old logician, but the Stratagems show him as a total wideboy. You can see why Zhuangzi was so fond of him.
莊子 2.3:非彼無我,非我無所取。
Zhuangzi 2.3: Without "that..." there is no "my...." Without "my... " there is nowhere to capture.

“So it is said, for him who understands Heavenly joy, life is the working of Heaven; death is the transformation of things. In stillness, he and the yin share a single Virtue; in motion, he and the yang share a single flow.”

The 20th Story of the Jingu Qiguan:
“Zhuangzi gaslights his 3rd wife into committing adultery and subsequently suicide to make a point, does a drumroll and leaves”
found out something kinda cool rn, apparently the face Philemon has at the end of Persona 1 is actually supposed to be Zhuangzi, the guy who wrote the butterfly poem in the games intro
i always thought it was supposed to be a grown up Naoya,,
"Fluye con lo que pueda suceder y deja que tu mente sea libre: mantente centrado aceptando lo que estés haciendo. Esto es lo esencial.“

An OC inspired by one of the story in "Zhuangzi" book about a man wondering if he was a man who dreamed of being a butterfly or a butterfly dreaming of being a man
