Description: This classic collection of spiritual insights nd observations called the Tao Te Ching embodies the search for a way to live based not on arbitrary rules of morality but on achieving harmony with all things. Here can be found an understanding of the essential oneness of the universe, that cosmic energy - chi flows within and around us without ceasing, and that wisdom consists not in acting upon the world in order to change it, but in finding and following the Way - the Tao. Taoism explains the world in terms of contemplation, mediation, acceptance, and reconciliation, in sticking imagery that penetrates the heart.
