The Tao Te Ching is a series of meditations on the mysterious nature of the Tao--the Way, the guiding light, the very source of all existence. According to Lao Tzu (a name meaning "the old master"), the Tao is found where we would least expect it--not in the strong but in the weak; not in speech but in silence; not in doing but in "not-doing."
Wise yet worldly, spiritual yet practical, the Tao Te Ching is beloved by seekers all the world over. This new edition features a clear, poetic translation adapted by bestselling author Sam Torode that makes this ancient work accessible to contemporary readers. (Torode has also written adaptations of the Manual of Epictetus and the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius.)
"This is the gift that ancient humans would give us if they saw us today... Wisdom." --Jimmy of the "Bright Insight" YouTube channel, speaking of the Ancient Renewal edition of the Tao Te Ching.Â
The Kindle e-book is FREE when you buy the paperback.Â
Also available as an audiobook, perfect for meditation.
Please note: Amazon has an unfortunate policy of lumping together all the reviews of various translations and editions of classic books like the Tao Te Ching. Be aware that any negative reviews below, complaining of poor quality and typos, refer to other publishers' editions of this book, not the Ancient Renewal version rendered in contemporary English by Sam Torode.
