Zhaoxue suwu is an excerpt from the compilation of Zhuangzi, a text with origins going back to the late 5^th century BC. During one of his witty exchange with a Confucian scholar, the Daoist master explains, chapter 22: 

'Lao Dan [Laozi] said, 'you must fast and cleanse your mind, make your essential spirit as pure as new snow, and destroy your knowledge! The Dao is so profound and far-reaching it is impossible to talk about, but I shall try to give you a rough outline of it.'
