Tao Te Ching, as one of the classics of ancient China philosophy, has attracted the attention of many scholars with its profound thoughts and unique expression. From the perspective of metaphor, this paper deeply discusses the philosophical connotation of water in Laozi's Tao Te Ching, focusing on the core concepts such as "being good as water", "being soft" and "doing nothing".
