It is perfect for all who seek a more natural way of living.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWritten in about the sixth century BC, \u003cem\u003eTao Te Ching\u003c\/em\u003e (or Daode Jing) is the masterpiece of the Chinese sage Laozi (or Lao Tzu), a record-keeper at the Zhou court and a contemporary of Confucius. Laozi is regarded as the founder of Taoism. Although the book was written more than 2,500 years ago, and within a radically different culture, its concepts and teachings have never been more relevant to the Western world than they are today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLaozi offers profound wisdom, arguing that humankind is but a tiny part of an inexhaustible greatness, and that individuals can attain true fulfillment by striving to live in harmony not only with others but also with their natural environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOrganising the work into 81 verses divided into two parts, Laozi sets out a path (tao) by which we can tune ourselves into the nature of the universe. His axioms are intended as a means to achieve transcendence and a life of integrity and balance. Among his insights are the ideas that flexibility and suppleness are superior to rigidity and strength, and that self-absorption and self-importance are vain and self-destructive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese suggestions for how people might live better within the world around them are arguably even more relevant today than they were nearly three millennia ago. This illustrated edition of a classic work is an essential addition to any collection of the world's classic texts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46835065422060,"sku":"9781627950985","price":34.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/16928923482767.jpg?v=1758532805"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/mr-chad-hansen.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
