Understanding the Tao Te Ching

By Spencer K. Wright

To obtain everything you desire in life, let go of desire . 500 years before Jesus taught about losing one's life in order to find it, the author of the Tao Te Ching had already revealed the secret to living this principle. When you stop trying to force reality to be something that it isn't, when you understand reality as it really is and work within it, you can obtain something greater than you could have possibly hoped for. For many people, the exotic traditions and unfamiliar cultures that produced the Tao Te Ching create too insurmountable a barrier to experience the bliss of this world-famous Taoist work and the philosophy it embodies. In Understanding the Tao Te Ching , Wright shares his translation, coupled with personal stories and illustrative commentary, drawing upon the works of world-renowned teachers such as Jesus, the Buddha, Mahavira, and Gandhi. He also shares his nearly 20 years of Taoist experience, aiding the reader in grasping the meaning behind this enigmatic text produced more than 2,500 years ago.
