Synopsis:

Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching or Book of the Way is the ancient text on the art of living a comfortable and stress-free life. This unique interpretation of the Taoist philosophy presents Lao Tzu's message clearly and in a direct manner that avoids confusing mystical explanations. To Hanshi Stephen Kaufman, A distinguished martial arts grandmaster and educator, the Tao Te Ching is simply a book of poetry and passion and through Hanshi's staightforward approach and explanation you will come to see that to understand the Tao is to understand the beauty and simplicity of life.

The Living Tao presents eighty-one original poems followed by the author's commentary relating each to the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of life based on the Chinese notion of yin and yang. The result is a guide for living that can empower you to achieve meaning and fulfillment in your life.

Book Excerpt:
