| Summary |
Discover the path of wisdom. Lao-Tse is considered to be the founder of Taoism. According to legend, he lived in the 4th century BC, served as the Reich archivist in the state and withdrew into solitude in old age. Here, at the request of a friend, he recorded his thoughts in a script that later generations named "Tao Te King". This "Book of the Way and Virtue" is the most influential and well-known text of Chinese philosophy beyond the borders of China. Tao Te King consists of 81 sayings. His guiding principles are directed towards the perfection of things, their natural state. Stephen Mitchell's new, contemporary version of the Tao Te King is considered an ingenious transmission. Its version, which preserves the conciseness and simplicity of the original, enables the listener to penetrate the Taoist way of thinking and derive instructions for practical action from it. With this audiobook you will: **find inner peace; **conform to oneself; **recognize the natural principle of all things. This book was published in the English original under the title Tao Te Ching. With a preface and commentary by Stephen Mitchell. |
