Ancient Philosophy for Modern Wisdom - Practical Wisdom.
When the ancient Chinese sages first discovered the Tao, they realised in themselves its mysterious results: rich insight and guidance for a long life, penetrating insight, harmonious contentment, wisdom and knowledge of the future.
Mark Forstater unveils the philosophy of the Tao, meaning The Way, which began in its written form with Chuang Tzu in the 4th century BC. It remains among the most influential philosophies in the Eastern world. The spiritual writings of the Tao are profound, moving and ultimately mysterious. In the hands of Chuang Tzu, they are also funny, striking, paradoxical and radical. Here Forstater selects and reinterprets the fables and stories of Chuang Tzu, which illuminate the workings of the Tao, for the contemporary reader.
