Zhuangzi on equality
Zhuangzi (c. 369–c. 286 BCE) approaches equality within Daoism. Its transformations and dream stories encourage wandering freely, accepting change, and resisting the urge to impose one perspective as final. Systematically, the teaching links skepticism, spontaneity, perspectivism into a practical and theoretical whole.
