Lao Tzu's "Destruction of the Ego" 1 (Essay)
(This is a dialogue between me and a certain woman.)
Me: I believe that the key to deciphering Lao Tzu lies in how to perceive and treat the "ego." "I am myself" and "nothing", which are mentioned in Chapter 13, are especially important. I think Lao Tzu is saying that the "ego" should be "extinguished". This is "ego extinction" on a psychological or psychiatric level. In other words, it is possible to entrust the nation only to those whose "ego" has died. Otherwise, in the second half of Chapter 13, the person who merely "self-protects" is called "I have no self".
If you say that you are a such person, "Lao Tzu" will be a very boring book, isn't it?
Do not you think so?
Some time ago, I told you about the "Void Ship" of Zhuang Zhou. If the boat that crashed into it had people on board, the people who were hit would get angry, but if the boat that had no people on board crashed into it, the people who were hit would have no reason to get angry. If this "void itself" is the "ego", then something like this can happen.
Therefore, read chapter 26 with the idea that a person who can do the above is called a "gentleman". Here, "Gentleman" does not necessarily need to be read as "military commander".This chapter states that those who have extinguished their “self” are (as a phenomenon) unmoved by external things.I think you are saying that. I think that it is also the figure of "Lao Tzu" that talks about "life or death, experiences and thoughts at the limit".
She: What are some examples of people who have had "ego annihilation"?
Like Gandhi? The one who extinguished this "ego" is (as a phenomenon) an external
If anyone knows of a living example of someone who is unmoved by things, please let me know. In terms of historical figures,like Takamori Saigo? Even so, I think there are very few people like that. However, in the second half of Chapter 13, he writes the opposite. Are you writing about doing your own thing properly and not being caught up in the events of the world and not being tossed about? I feel like it's an example of what can be done in chapter 13 when the ego can be extinguished.

Everyone’s biggest fear showing itself at the most unexpected place. From within the young one’s heart, where only hate and resentment are left. Is there still something the Brigade can save ?
(Ahhhhh! Big BIG spoil, I’m sorryyyyyyyyy) but how could I keep myself from drawing this, seriously ?! It is almost like I have been waiting for this since the beginning !

One last adventure...

So while I love The Day of the Doctor as a crossover and anniversary it does kind of belittle the Time War. I'm rewatching old Doctor Who episodes and it reminded me that the Daleks built a void ship to escape the Time War, but according to The Day of The Doctor the Daleks just killed themselves by firing on themselves and there was nothing really to create a "time lock" around the entire Time War. From everything we had seen from before that 50th anniversary it was all a mystery and magical. A complete unknown is better than the explanation.
So that Void Ship quest saga of DragonFable is freaking destroying my feels right now. Like, why did things suddenly become so emotionally intense? I mean I love it but I think I might cry.
(This isn't a complaint by any means. I'm just talking about feels.)
Here is one of the illustration I drew for the 16th chapter of Bumblesaur’s fanfic : The Stars are in his Eyes. Enjoy !

Whatever happened to the void ship?
