32 2008 pp. 167 179 1 Received October 31, 2008 The purpose of this paper is the look at the thought of the Taoist thinkers of the Donghan Dynasty who centred on a political, colourful yet self-protective ideal while trying to unify miscellaneous conceptual ideas together with one s natural disposition. I will then look at the biography of Yan Junping, the Taoist thinker of the late Donghan Dynasty and try to evaluate his position in the history of thought. 167
