Beschrijving

Explore the profound teachings of the Tao Teh Ching, a timeless classic on the Way and High Virtue attributed to the sage Lao Tzu, who is believed to have lived around the same time as Confucius. Although the exact origins of this revered text remain a topic of debate, it is beautifully structured into two parts the Upper Part, comprising chapters 1-37, each beginning with Tao, representing the Way, and the Lower Part, consisting of chapters 38-81, which starts with Shang Teh, meaning High Virtue. This insightful 1919 edition intriguingly refers to the Lower Part as the Wu Wei, often interpreted as not doing, non-ado, or non-assertion. Additionally, it features an engaging history of the work and its enigmatic author, along with an exploration of the concept of Wu Wei. Lao Tzus teachings encourage readers to embrace suggestions rather than strict commandments, guiding them toward a life rich in beauty, goodness, and quality through a gentle understanding of the Way.
