These four books, most commonly known as Tao Te Ching, Hua Hu Ching, Chuang Tsu and Lieh Tzu, are spiritual food of the highest order providing clarifying guidance to those who study them.
For those who are open to a Taoist viewpoint, the books give profound insights into human nature, society, the natural world and the processes of life. Slowly but surely altering the reader's outlook and values, and guiding he or she on their way.
The insights gained here are not just for intellectual stimulation. This is a collection which can be applied to everyday situations and yet does not shirk from metaphysics.

Quotes

  • Soliloquios Literarioshas quoted6 years ago
    “Taoism,” in particular, needs to be handled with care, for it designates both a philosophical tradition and an organized religion, which in modern Chinese are identified separately as Taojia and Taojiao, respectively.
  • Soliloquios Literarioshas quoted6 years ago
    At one time, scholars in both China and the West distinguished philosophical from religious Taoism, but more recently a continuity of belief and practice between these has been recognized. In both, a harmonious relationship between nature, humanity, and the divine is emphasized, and both are concerned with appropriate behavior and ways of leading and governing others.
