In ancient China, way before birth of Christ, there were a handful of great philosophers like Lao Zi (老子) born 600 BC, Confucius (孔丘 aka 孔夫子 aka 孔子) born 551 BC, Mencius (孟子) born 372/385 BC and Zhuang Zi (莊周 aka 莊子 aka 庄子) born 369 BC.
Lao Zi (老子) is believed to have spread the teaching of Tao Te Ching, the basis of Taoism which was later branched into modern day Taoism. Confucius (孔丘 aka 孔夫子 aka 孔子) spread the teaching of Confucianism which emphasized on moral teaching, social relationship, justice and sincerity.
These are the foundation of self actualization which we are desperately seeking in modern day. Instead, nowadays, people are overly concerned about personal success, process of eliminating your competitors and manipulation of other human beings.
While committing all these evil deeds, we still we a mask of deception and preach about love and well being, sinisterly hiding evil intent with an angel's smile. LOL
