Seorang Filsuf Legendaris Lǎo Zǐ (sekitar 580-470 SM)

Nama keluarga Lao Zi adalah Li dan nama pemberiannya adalah Er. Lao Zi adalah gelar kehormatan. Secara luas diakui bahwa Lao Zi adalah salah satu filsuf yang paling dihormati dalam sejarah Tiongkok. Ada banyak legenda tentang kelahirannya, kariernya, ajarannya, dan gagasan filosofisnya.

Menurut salah satu legenda populer, Lao Zi dikandung ketika ibunya melihat bintang jatuh ke pangkuannya dan ia tetap berada di dalam rahim selama 80 tahun. Ketika ia lahir, ia sudah dewasa dengan janggut abu-abu dan cuping telinga panjang, simbol keberuntungan dan umur panjang.

Ia pernah menyimpan arsip istana kerajaan untuk Dinasti Zhou (sekitar abad ke-11-256 SM). Tetapi kemudian ia mengundurkan diri dan pergi ke barat untuk menyebarkan ide dan filosofinya.

Suatu hari, saat menunggangi lembu, ia mendekati Gerbang Hangu dan dihentikan oleh Yinxi, seorang penjaga yang bertugas di gerbang tersebut. Sebagai pengikut setia filsafat Lao Zi, perwira itu segera mengenali sang guru besar. Namun, untuk meminta Lao Zi mengajarkan sebagian filsafatnya, perwira itu menuntut agar lelaki tua itu menunjukkan izin resmi untuk meninggalkan negara tersebut. Lao Zi tidak memiliki dokumen, jadi dia setuju untuk menulis esai sepanjang 5.000 kata tentang filsafatnya sebagai imbalan untuk perjalanan ke Barat. Esai itu ternyata adalah Daodejing (juga disebut “Tao Te Ching”), atau “Kitab Kebajikan” yang terkenal.

Saat ini, para cendekiawan di seluruh dunia masih memperdebatkan apakah buku tersebut benar-benar ditulis oleh Lao Zi atau disusun oleh murid-muridnya.

Namun, mereka semua sepakat bahwa buku tersebut mencerminkan pemikiran Lao Zi. Dalam buku tersebut, Lao Zi menggunakan konsep Dao (Tao) untuk menjelaskan semua perubahan di alam semesta. Dao, yang juga diterjemahkan sebagai “Jalan” atau “Integritas Agung,” dianggap sebagai sumber misterius atau cita-cita dari semua keberadaan.

“Tao Te Ching” karya Lao Tzu adalah karya klasik filsafat Tiongkok. Cara terbaik untuk memahami karya ini secara mendalam adalah dengan datang ke Tiongkok dan mengikuti kursus bahasa Mandarin penuh waktu. Sebagai negara terbaik untuk belajar bahasa Mandarin, Tiongkok tidak hanya menawarkan kursus bahasa berkualitas tinggi, tetapi juga memungkinkan Anda untuk mengalami langsung kegiatan budaya tradisional seperti Festival Tiongkok.

I can’t tell you how much I liked it. The thing I liked about the teachers and the teaching method is that there is so much flexibility. The other thing I liked about the teaching is the combination of classic textbook learning and going outside. I loved it! I like getting to know other students. Everybody shared the same goal and that’s making their Chinese better. Kunming is a big city, but it is very safe to live here. Another thing I liked about Keats is the idea that people here help you. I can’t recommend it enough. I think it was a valuable experience. Looking forward to coming back!

At Keats, I have a lot of opportunities to practice what I have learned. I really like this school, because I can learn Chinese in one-on-one style, so I think this is the best immersion program in China and my teacher is the best teacher. I feel that without my teacher, my Chinese will definitely not improve so much. I’m very happy because, at Keats, I have improved my Chinese significantly.

Small Group Chinese Class

Kunming is a great place to learn Chinese in China because not many Chinese on the street speak English. Keats has been a great school for me and a lot of other foreigners who studied in China recommended it to me. I think they are all right. The study method here is really structured. They make learning Chinese really easy. There are also a lot of cultural and natural places to visit.

Listening and speaking in the classroom every day has improved my communication skills. After three weeks, my new words and sentences became more and more natural and fluent. Now I am used to thinking in Chinese, and I understand better what other people say, to be able to have real conversations with other people.

About studying Chinese here, I think the living condition is very convenient because the dorm is very close to the classroom. Our teachers really enjoy teaching Chinese. They are also very passionate. Compared with other cities in China, Kunming has really good weather.

They really care about what our interests are, what questions we have, what requirements we have. Then they adjust our Chinese language program content according to the situations. One teacher and one student, so it is easy to keep your focus for the 6 hours of immersion Mandarin lessons. It is very convenient to study, live and eat in one building.
