Did Sun Tzu mentioned about SuperME and PLG 2,500 Years Ago?

While Sun Tzu’s Art of War (written around 500 B.C.) doesn’t literally use the words SuperME, Purpose, Love, or Gratitude, it expresses these energies through strategy, leadership, and human nature. Let’s explore where — both directly and symbolically — these ideas live within the text.

⚔️ 1️⃣ Purpose — “Dao” (The Way)

Where: Chapter 1: Laying Plans (始计篇)

“The Way (道) causes the people to be in harmony with their leaders,

so that they will follow them through life and death without fear of danger.”

This is the spiritual root of all strategy — Dao, or Purpose.

Sun Tzu begins his entire philosophy here: before calculation, before weapons, before war — there must be alignment with The Way.

In SuperME terms:

Purpose gives meaning to action. Without Purpose, effort scatters.

With Purpose, even the smallest act carries power.

So, Dao = Purpose — the higher reason why we act, not just what we do.

💖 2️⃣ Love — “Win Hearts Before You Win Battles”

Where: Chapter 3: Attack by Stratagem (谋攻篇)

“To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.”

“The skillful leader cultivates the moral law and strictly adheres to method and discipline; thus it is in his power to control success.”

This “moral law” (德, De) is about virtue and compassion.

A wise general wins people’s hearts before winning their land.

He unites, rather than destroys.

That’s Love in action — leadership by empathy, not fear.

In the SuperME lens, this is the power of heart energy — using connection, respect, and care to create harmony.

Love doesn’t mean softness; it means alignment with life itself.

🌼 3️⃣ Gratitude — “Know and Value All Things”

Where: Chapter 6: Weak Points and Strong (虚实篇)

“He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot, will be victorious.”

“He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces.”

Gratitude, at its core, is awareness with appreciation.

Sun Tzu constantly reminds us to recognize reality as it is — to honor the terrain, timing, and people’s energy.

A great general is grateful for all — advantage and disadvantage — because both teach him how to adapt.

In SuperME, gratitude is the energy of acceptance and transformation.

When you stop resisting what is, you start using it — just as Sun Tzu turns obstacles into opportunities.

Every loss hides a lesson. Every storm hides a new path.

🌞 4️⃣ SuperME — “Know Yourself and Know the World”

Where: Chapter 3: Attack by Stratagem

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.”

This is the essence of SuperME.

To know yourself is to awaken your higher self — the self beyond fear, pride, and ego.

To know the world is to act in flow with reality, not against it.

In other words, SuperME is Sun Tzu’s Inner General —

the calm, wise, centered part of you that wins without fighting.

“The greatest victory is not in battle, but in mastering yourself.”

That’s the SuperME spirit exactly — winning the inner war, before facing the outer one.

💫 Final Thought

Sun Tzu’s wisdom was never just about war —

it was always about alignment, awareness, and energy mastery.

The Art of War is really the Art of Being SuperME:

acting with Purpose, leading with Love, and evolving through Gratitude —

to win every battle without losing your peace.
