The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove lived in a time of violent political conflicts, transitional dynastic changes, fears, domination by great powers, confusion of right and wrong rule by unjust and false Confucian ethical codes, when people were blamed frivolously, suffered from disasters and catastrophes, felt helpless with their destinies in face of uncertain political rackets and chaos. As a matter of facts, under the influence of the Han Dynasty, which worshiped Confucius and the Confucian Classics, the seven sages were immersed in Confucianism and the moral virtues of loyalty, filialness, benevolence and justice. Though living in the worst of time, they were largely noble in character and abstained from the mainstream corruption, which brought them the name of seven ”sages.” However, confronted with the coercion and temptation by the ruling politicians in the name of benevolence, justice and Confucian ethical codes, they could not but turn to Taoist wisdom in dealing with people and worldly affairs. On the one hand, they led a quiet life to avoid calamities; on the other hand, with boundless impartiality, selflessness, non-posession and non-action, they adroitly persuaded those ambitious politicians who used Confucianism as a political tool.With regards to self-health, attention to worldly affairs, social ethics and critical political agenda, they reasonably extracted inspiring wisdom about life and politics from ”Laotze”, based on their personal encounters and states of mind. This article is to compare the text of ”Laotze” with the related statements by the seven sages, making a solid documental analysis and philosophical applications, in wishes that we can justify ”Laotze” 's influence on Ruan Ji, Ji Kang and Shan Tao through evidential and convincing argument.
