Description
The Path to Peace
The Tao Te Ching is a series of meditations on the mysterious nature of the Tao—the Way, the 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.”
Compiled in China around 2,500 years ago, the
Tao Te Ching is beloved by seekers all the world over. This edition is rendered in poetic language by Sam Torode, based on the 1919 translation by Dwight Goddard, making this ancient work accessible to contemporary readers.
