Lao Tzu (the Taoism guy)

[Ezra]

Almost certainly SEI. I was a Taoist for years.

Ne-INFj.

Ne-INFj.

Why do you say that?

Why not SLI?

You cannot just ask why not SLI, but you must also ask why an SLI.

I don't know about Schopenhauer, but Zen (or Ch'an) itself is a hybrid of Buddhism and Taoism. FWIW, I have found Zen is more Ni, and Tao is more Si.

I don't know what Lao Tzu's type would be (I don't believe he actually existed), but the Tao te Ching is one of my favorite scriptures in general. The mythical Lao Tzu seems possibly SLI.

Neither do I, but I think that attempting to type him makes it easier than trying to type Taoism (and how it has evolved) in general.

Why not SLI?

Could be. Actually, Fe PoLR if you read his (supposed) teachings makes much sense.
