Tao Te Ching - Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life

TAO TE CHING
Considered to be the wisest book ever written
with the potential to positively and forever change your life



Wayne Dyer analyses and writes a new version of the book "Tao Te Ching", which is based on the ancient teachings of Lao Tzu, a spiritual and philosophical teacher that lived in China. The "Tao Te Ching" was written 2500 years ago by Lao Tzu and even today, is still considered by many spiritual teachers as the wisest and most profound book ever written, one that changes perspectives about ourselves, others and the whole world.

Understanding the teachings in this book and putting them into practice can, in and individual and collective level, create a mental and spiritual revolution, transforming the world into one filled with equality, oneness, happiness, peace, harmony and love.

"The sage is kind to the kind,
and kind to the unkind,
because the Nature of its being
is kindness.
Be wise and help all beings impartially,
abandoning none"
Lao Tzu - Tao Te Ching

"Sages do not accumulate anything,
but give everything to others,
having more,
the more they give"
 
Lao Tzu - Tao Te Ching

 He who knows does not speak,
He who speaks does not know.
He who knows others is wise,
He who know himself is enlightened.

Lao Tzu - Tao Te Ching

"Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life"
Living the Wisdom of the
Tao Te Ching

By Wayne Dyer
www.drwaynedyer.com

"This is a book that will forever change the way you look at your life, and the result will be that you’ll live in a new world aligned with nature. Writing this book changed me forever, too. I now live in accord with the natural world and feel the greatest sense of peace I’ve ever experienced."

"When you change the way you look at things,
the things you look at change."
Wayne Dyer

Introduction:

Five hundred years before the birth of Jesus, a God-realized being named Lao-tzu in ancient China dictated 81 verses, which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of our existence. The classic text of these 81 verses, called the Tao Te Ching or the Great Way, offers advice and guidance that is balanced, moral, spiritual, and always concerned with working for the good.

In this book, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer has reviewed hundreds of translations of the Tao Te Ching and has written 81 distinct essays on how to apply the ancient wisdom of Lao-tzu to today’s modern world. This work contains the entire 81 verses of the Tao, compiled from Wayne’s researching of 10 of the most well-respected translations of text that have survived for more than 25 centuries. Each chapter is designed for actually living the Tao or the Great Way today. Some of the chapter titles are “Living with Flexibility,” “Living Without Enemies,” and “Living by Letting Go.” Each of the 81 brief chapters focuses on living the Tao and concludes with a section called “Doing the Tao Now.”

Wayne spent one entire year reading, researching, and meditating on Lao-tzu’s messages, practicing them each day and ultimately writing down these essays as he felt Lao-tzu wanted you to know them.

This is a work to be read slowly, one essay a day. As Wayne says, “This is a book that will forever change the way you look at your life, and the result will be that you’ll live in a new world aligned with nature. Writing this book changed me forever, too. I now live in accord with the natural world and feel the greatest sense of peace I’ve ever experienced. I’m so proud to present this interpretation of the Tao Te Ching, and offer the same opportunity for change that it has brought me."


Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power.
When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.
At the center of your being you have the answer: you know who you are and you know what you want.
Lao Tzu - Tao Te Ching
