What did Zhuangzi think about wisdom?

  • Beyond words

  • In books

  • In rituals

  • In wealth

Answer

Beyond words, Zhuangzi believed wisdom transcended mere linguistic expression. He saw language as inherently limited, unable to fully capture the complexities of the world. True wisdom, for Zhuangzi, lay in the realm of the ineffable, beyond the confines of words. It was a state of intuitive understanding and harmony with the natural order, accessible through meditation and the cultivation of a childlike openness to the world.
