- Abstract
The article aims to explore some aspects of the wéiwúwéi (為無為) practice recommended by the Dàodéjīng by examining it in various contexts. Five theses are postulated: (1) we read in the Dàodéjīng about an ontological principle which states that the functionality of the entity is determined by its structure which is a nonentity; (2) wéiwúwéi can be performed by inspiring by personal example; (3) wéiwúwéi can be realized as a result of a transcendental or psychological transformation of the subject by liberating the agent from conditions; (4) wéiwúwéi can be performed as permission for the errors of one's subordinates; (5) The ideal ruler as proposed by the Dàodéjīng is characterized by low time preference.
