The Tao is usually translated as "the way" or "the path," but it is better understood as a universal life force that flows around and through all things. The &&LITao Te Ching&&L/I teaches us that happiness is found in becoming one with the Tao, which enables us to live in harmony, balance, and peace and to develop the virtues of humility, moderation, and compassion.&&LBR&&LBRTaoism emphasizes "non-dualistic" thinking and the interconnectedness of all life. The "dualistic thinker" looks at the world and sees differences, comparisons, and contrasts. The Taoist sage knows that all such judgments depend on the person making them, not on the reality of what is being judged. Unlike theistic (God-centered) religions, Taoism does not involve prayer to a deity. Instead, Taoists meditate on the wisdom in the &&LITao Te Ching&&L/I, seeking to unravel the paradoxes and understand the complexities that lie within its simple language.&&LBR&&L/P&&LP style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&&LSTRONGYi-Ping Ong&&L/B&&L/B graduated with a B.A. in Philosophy from Columbia University and a second B.A. in Philosophy and Theology from Oxford University.

Yi Ping/ Charles Muller/ Laozi
One of the best translations of The Tao Te Ching. It’s also a free online download. Author truly isn’t in writing books for financial gain.. I’m sure Laozi Appreciates that very much! This book is recommended by many Daoist Masters (Myself included) as one of the best English translations. 無爲無道

Best Book
One of the best books I've ever owned. This is coming from someone who has not only read thousands of books, but I chopped up my entire book collection with a battle ready samurai sword; and this book plus one other were the only one's I kept.

An deeply intuitive, yet constant read. Cannot read this book just once, especially if you plan to live life in the Way of the Tao. Love it!
