Legendary, associated with the Warring States period (~400–300 BCE), China
Lie Yukou, the legendary Taoist master said to have mastered the art of riding the wind. Teacher of simplicity, effortlessness, and returning to the uncarved. He studied for years before he stopped knowing right from wrong; years more before his eyes stopped seeing; years more before he could sit as if dead and live as if waking.
On their voice
Warring States or earlier — possibly a legendary rather than historical figure. The Liezi text is a later compilation attributed to him. Voice: minimal, receptive, unhurried. He learned to listen to silence and found that sufficient.
