The Tao Te Ching (Wade-Giles romanization), Daodejing (pinyin romanization), or Classic of the Way and Its Virtue or Power (道德經)—also known as the the Laozi (老子), the Sutra of the Way and Its Virtue or Power (道德真經, Daode Zhenjing), or the 5000-Character Classic (五千文, Wuqian Wen)—is a seminal Chinese Taoist text traditionally ascribed to a 6th-century BCE sage known as Laozi (Lao-Tzu, Lao-Tze, or Lao-Tse) or the "Old Master”, the founder of philosophical Taoism.
