Quality Alchemist (品質煉金術師): Chinese Traditional Wisdom Management Course (中華智慧管理學)

Minda and I joined Prof. Pang’s (彭泓基教授) course named “Chinese Traditional Wisdom Management” (中華智慧管理學) and the fifth lecture was held on 6^th Jun 2026 (Sat) that is “6666”.

Prof. Pang introduced “A deep discussion with Doubao about Bazi (Four Pillars of Destiny) and numerology” (跟豆包深談八字命理與術數文化).

He demonstrated human and AI debate about science and numerology. It was very interested that Doubao said it is not scientific but it agreed part of Prof. Pang view during the discussion.

After that he introduced one of famous articles from Zhuangzi (莊子) about a dialogue between Confucius and a Fisherman.

That fisherman is wiser and he explained different concerns from different level/type of people.

The fisherman told Confucius to change Eight Evil Behaviors and Four Disasters, otherwise he would not be able to reach the “Tao”.

After that he concluded “The Way is not lightly transmitted, the Dharma is not cheaply sold; it is received by those with affinity. (道不轻传, 法不贱卖, 有缘者得之.)”

The second part of lecture is to discuss “Differences and similarities between Confucian and Daoist ideas of "preserving truth"(守真)”.

And the Prof. Pang used the story of Qu Yuan (屈原) as an example to compare the reactions of Confucianism and Taoism in the same situation.

Finally, he compared the core idea in different dimensions among the Zhouyi (周易), Tao Te Ching (道德經) and the Zhuangzi (莊子).

Prof. Pang concluded that “The Zhouyi (周易) is rational and extroverted, providing a structural framework that inspires ceaseless active self-improvement. The Daodejing (道德經) is profound and introverted, revealing inner cosmic wisdom that guides us to live with humility, flow like water, and practice timely retreat. And the Zhuangzi (莊子) is poetic and transcendent, offering a liberating outlet for the human soul to wander freely and commune with the spirit of nature.”

The last part was Guiguzi (鬼谷子) “A Legendary Master of Strategic Maneuvering (纵横捭阖)”.

This topic will be discussed in the next course. He briefed some background of Guiguzi and introduced his famous students.

Then he mentioned what is the Strategic Maneuvering (纵横捭阖).

At the end, he introduced the top strategic principles to us.

After the lecture, we had lunch together.
