The Dao De Jing

By Laozi

Here is a faithful rendering of Laozi's Dao De Jing, using the earliest sources: The Guodian Bamboo Slips, and Mawangdui Silk Texts. Each individual chapter was translated using the earliest extant text as its source. This book is the result of over two-thousand hours of immersion in these texts of Laozi's Dao De Jing. Within this easy-to-read translation an ancient, nature-based worldview can be found; one that speaks to the human condition, and still resonates today. A voice that offers grounded guidance, and shares a way of life rooted in simplicity.

Note: This is the standard version of this translation without illuistrations.
