Book excerpt: The pursuit of power, happiness, and life's meaning is as old as history itself, as the Tao Te Ching (The Book of the Way and Its Virtue) attests. Dating from two and a half millennia ago, this timeless text consists of 81 brief chapters that form one of the world's most profound and influential spiritual traditions. The Tao played a significant role in the development of Buddhist thought, and this classic of meditative insight continues to inform modern readers with its emphasis on mindfulness. Centered on the principle of wu wei, or naturalness and simplicity, its teachings outline an attitude of spontaneity and noninterference that fosters individuality and self-awareness. This high-quality gift edition of the authoritative James Legge translation is an enduring companion on the mystical path to spiritual freedom.

Book excerpt: El Tao Te King, de más de 2000 años de antigüedad, es uno de los ejes referenciales del pensamiento oriental. Atribuido a Lao Tse, del cual se dice que estuvo meditando durante 80 años en el vientre de su madre virgen antes de decidirse a nacer, consta de 81 apartados compuestos de máximas breves en torno al Tao, y de modo singular empieza la obra afirmando que “Del Tao que se puede hablar, no es el Tao eterno”. Así es el libro del Tao, una paradoja constante que inevitablemente deja en el lector un aroma de perplejidad y belleza, detrás de las cuales se asoma toda la potencia de una enseñanza que sorprende. No es un libro de religión, ni de filosofía o ética, sino de una obra de sabiduría perenne que abarca y trasciende estos conceptos y que suavemente coloca, a quien se asoma a sus páginas, justo al borde del abismo del conocimiento.

Book excerpt: El Dao De Jing (Tao Te Ching, tambien llamado Tao Te King), cuya autoria se atribuye a Laozi (WG Lao Tzu, tambien trasliterado como Lao Tse, "Viejo Maestro"), es un texto clasico chino. Su nombre procede de las palabras con las que empiezan cada una de sus dos partes: dao "el camino," la primera del Capitulo 1, y de "virtud," o "poder," la primera del Capitulo 38, con el anadido jing, "libro clasico." Segun la tradicion, fue escrito alrededor del siglo VI a. de C. por el sabio Laozi, un archivista de la corte de la dinastia Zhou, por cuyo nombre se conoce el texto en China. La verdadera autoria y fecha de composicion o de compilacion del libro es aun objeto de debate. Este texto es uno de los fundamentos del taoismo filosofico y tuvo una fuerte influencia sobre otras escuelas.

Book excerpt: The Tao Te Ching is a spiritual, inspirational work that guides us through life, helping us to live within each moment and find the beauty that is all around each of us. Simple, beautiful, and life changing, the Tao Te Ching is fundamental to the Taoist school of Chinese philosophy (D‡ojia) and strongly influenced other schools, such as Legalism and Neo-Confucianism. This ancient book is also central in Chinese Buddhism, which when first introduced into China was largely interpreted through the use of Taoist words and concepts. Many Chinese artists, including poets, painters, calligraphers, and even gardeners have used the Tao Te Ching as a source of inspiration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To render the Dao-De-Ging in a modern Western language means to surmount a cultural barrier, a scriptural barrier and a time barrier , only to find oneself before a multitude of possible interpretations for one glyph, or for a pair or a triplet of them. Even today's Chinese scholars are divided over what might be the best understanding. The brand-new version offered here was mainly made comparing three Chinese originals, after studying 30 earlier versions in 6 European languages, plus several by Chinese scholars - and this strictly, and for the first time really, without any supposually creative interpolations. Many shocking inventions in earlier interpretations have been cleared and explained, using historical and cultural evidence. Other variants, textual symmetries, and interrelations between the different verses, are discussed. - And this translation has been approved by a Chinese scholar. Esoteric commentaries are very in-depth from Nr. 34 to 81, but only sketchy from Nr 1 to 33, where they recommend an earlier esoteric commentary - but not the textual translation used by it - around 1980, by Jan van Rijckenborgh and Catharose de Petri. This book and its commentaries include usages, traditions and outer circumstances of the 6th to 4th centuries b.C. – especially where metaphors and proverbs adorn the original text. They always illustrate three levels of understanding : that of every-day’s life of everybody, that of the demands for a normal Wise - general, king, or teacher - and that of the intimate inner spiritual path of Initiation. Some rare and very enlightening pictures are sustaining various interpretations never heard before.

Book excerpt: "Ursula K. Le Guin, a student of the Tao Te Ching for more than fifty years, offers her own thoughtful rendering of the Taoist scripture.

Seaton to develop a version that lets the ancient text speak in a fresh way to modern people, while remaining faithful to the original Chinese. This rendition reveals the Tao Te Ching's immediate relevance and power, its depth and refreshing humor, illustrating better than ever before why it has been so loved for more than 2,500 years. Included are Le Guin's own personal commentary and notes along with two audio CDs of the text read by the author, with original music composed and performed by Todd Barton."--Publisher's website.

Book excerpt: This book is an English translation of the German book Tao Te King: Das Buch vom Sinn und Leben by Richard Wilhelm. That book is, of course, a translation of the Chinese classic Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu. Richard Wilhelm was a highly regarded scholar of ancient Chinese literature. His translation of I Ching is still considered one of the best. In 1910 he published his translation of Tao Te Ching. He intended it for the general reader, not just academics. With this eBook it is now available to English speaking readers, Comments on Wilhelm's translation: "There are several good scriptural translations of the Tao Te Ching. I think Wilhelm's is the best". - Arthur Waley "Vigorous and scholarly translation," - Gia-Fu Feng "Important interpretation - Stefan Stenudd This book reads best as "original pages".

Book excerpt: The enduring wisdom of the Tao Te Ching can become a companion for your own spiritual journey. Reportedly written by a sage named Lao Tzu over 2,500 years ago, the Tao Te Ching is one of the most succinct--and yet among the most profound--spiritual texts ever written. Short enough to read in an afternoon, subtle enough to study for a lifetime, the Tao Te Ching distills into razor-sharp poetry centuries of spiritual inquiry into the Tao--the "Way" of the natural world around us that reveals the ultimate organizing principle of the universe. Derek Lin's insightful commentary, along with his new translation from the original Chinese--a translation that sets a whole new standard for accuracy--will inspire your spiritual journey and enrich your everyday life. It highlights the Tao Te Ching's insights on simplicity, balance, and learning from the paradoxical truths you can see all around you: finding strength through flexibility (because bamboo bends, it is tough to break); achieving goals by transcending obstacles (water simply flows around rocks on its way to the sea); believing that small changes bring powerful results (a sapling, in time, grows into a towering tree). Now you can experience the wisdom and power of Lao Tzu's words even if you have no previous knowledge of the Tao Te Ching. SkyLight Illuminations provides insightful yet unobtrusive commentary that describes helpful historical background, explains the Tao Te Ching's poetic imagery, and elucidates the ancient Taoist wisdom that will speak to your life today and energize your spiritual quest.

Book excerpt: Le Tao Te King est un classique de la sagesse chinoise, unanimement reconnu pour sa profondeur philosophique et sa sagesse pratique.

Ecrit en vers libres et fourmillant de précieux conseils, le Tao Te King des Parents aborde les grands thèmes du Tao, contribuant ainsi à une relation d'amour équilibrée entre parents et enfants : réagir aux situations sans jugement, encourager les processus naturels de développement, équilibrer le faire et l'être... Avec le Tao Te King des Parents, William Martin propose une alternative revigorante aux manuels pratiques qui assènent au lecteur d'innombrables "tu dois" et "il ne faut pas".
