Tao Te Ching: Yielding with Integrity Lao Tzu - Paperback

by Cristina I. Viviani (Author)

A joy to read this gem-like treasure of the Tao Te Ching is accessible, inclusive, poetic, and insightful. The Tao is an invitation to be in the flow of life in harmony with all beings and all things. This new version encourages us to begin from stillness and simply respond from an inner calm, quiet, and intuitive listening. Our innate sense of knowing through not-knowing is much needed in today's world. Discover how grace and ease most often appear by yielding to Lao Tzu's much cherished wisdom. "Cristina Viviani's inviting new translation of the Tao Te Ching captures both the simplicity and the complexity of these ancient teachings. In language that is clear, accessible, and possessed of a warmth sometimes lacking in other translations, Viviani's Tao Te Ching honors both the poetry and the philosophy of Taoism's central text." -John Brehm, author of The Dharma of Poetry "Beautiful and wise." -Dr. Alberto Pérez-Gómez, Emeritus Professor, Profesor Honoris Causa "I'm completely smitten! Loving this translation (even though Stephen Mitchell's has been my long-time favorite). I'm delighted to read and be immersed in this profoundly beautiful creation and integrate the wisdom and beauty the Tao brings. Now, I'm looking forward to holding this book in my hands and keeping it close by." -Moni Vangolen, Stillness Facilitator
