Daoist Chinese Characters

Learn what the Chinese characters mean!The following are selected important Daoist Chinese characters and their definitions.In Chinese, there are different styles to write a character. This is because the characters developed from Pre-Qin dynasty to today, went though many stages of development.Zhuan Shu (Seal Style)Jia Gu Wen - written on animal bones and tortoise shellsJin Wen - written on bronze waresZhou WenDa Zhuan (Big Seal)Xiao Zhuan (Small Seal)Li Shu (Official Style)Kai Shu (Standard Style)Simplified Chinese (China)Traditional Chinese (Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, and other countries)Cao Shu (Cursive Style)Xing ShuThe earliest discovered Chinese characters were found written on pre-Qin dynasty tortoise shells and animal bones (Jia Gu Wen) and this led to writing on old bronze wares (Jin Wen). Also popular during this era was Zhou Wen, Da Zhuan (Big Seal), and Xiao Zhuan (Small Seal). All these categories of calligraphy became collectively known as Zhuan Shu (Seal Style). The more popular and standardized Zhuan Shu is Xiao Zhuan, which came about because the first emperor of Qin dynasty tried to gather all the scripts at that time and this led to its creation. Zhuan Shu was difficult to write, so a version was made to make it more efficient which becamed known as Li Shu (Official Style). From Li Shu, calligraphers created a fast cursive style call Cao Shu. Li Shu also spawned the Kai Shu (Standard Style), which is the standard version you see in most Chinese newspapers today.Inbetween Cao Shu and Kai Shu is the Xing Shu, which is inbetween cursive and regular Kai Shu block structure.The China government in the 1950's simplified the Chinese characters into a version called Simplified Chinese, and the original one then became know as Traditional Chinese (used in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and elsewhere). Note that the Chinese characters in brackets used on this site are the Simplified Chinese Kai Shu version.Since Lao Zi was in the Zhou dynasty (which is pre-Qin dynasty: See Chinese History), the Chinese style that the Dao De Jing was written in was a variant of the Zhuan Shu.Kai ShuDescriptionZhuan ShuDescriptiondao"Dao" - Way"Dao" (way or path) is the main concept from Daoism.
