    The Lao Tzu popthrough was applied at 0158 Dec. 9, 2024.

    This means that he was an ootw (Opener of the Way, which
    I previously called avatar type).

    The ootws (including me) share some abilities in common
    but each has a different primary siddhi (paranormal ability).

    I have divined that Lao Tzu’s primary siddhi was
    total recall (both auditory and visual), whereas
    Jesus’s was healer special ability, Buddha’s
    was hypnosis special ability, Tsangyang Gyatso’s
    was music special ability, and mine is matchmaking.

    Is there any evidence that Lao Tzu had total recall?
    I seem to remember that he was a librarian, and
    such an ability would be useful to a librarian, who
    would be in effect a walking library.
