| | Tao Te Ching - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Tao Te Ching has been translated almost as many times as the Bible (second behind the Bible in fact). | | | In the Tao Te Ching, nothingness is the theme of many chapters and one could see the entire book as a suite of variations on "the Powers of Nothingness", echoing the ancient Buddhist philosophy of 'form is emptiness, emptiness is form'. | | | As in the theory of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, the Tao Te Ching assumes that ancient times were those of happiness, purity of intentions, and full communion with nature: "the times when anyone could look inside the nests of all the birds". |

| | The Tao Teh King, Liber CLVII |
| | So then his brothers in the Tao are joyful, attaining it; and his brothers in the Teh are joyful, attaining it; and they who fail in seeking these are joyful, partaking of it. | | | Vast is this Tao; Heaven also is Vast; Earth is vast; and the Holy King is vast also.((for they conform to the Tao.)) In the Universe are Four Vastnesses, and of these is the Holy King. | | | The Tao of Heaven contendeth not, yet it overcometh; it is silent, yet its need is answered; it summoneth none, but all men come to it of their free will. |

| | Tao Te Ching - Peter A. Merel's Interpolation |
| | Tao is infinite, Therefore Nature is infinite, Therefore the World is infinite, Therefore the Self is infinite. | | | For when Tao is lost, there is love; When love is lost, there is kindness; When kindness is lost, there is justice; And when justice is lost, there is religion. | | | Tao is all that exists and may exist; The World is only a map of what exists and may exist. |

| | One of the most famous books of Chinese spirituality is the Tao Te Ching, written by Lao Tsu about 2500 years ago. | | | It's also the third most translated book in the world, the first being the Bible, the second the Bhagavad Gita. | | | What was more immediate, there could be no good government or well-being for man apart from it." (source 7). |

| | Great Reads - Taoism |
| | John Mabry accomplishes this task sensitively and intelligently, both honoring the Tao Te Ching and illuminating the Gospel as more compassionate, relevant and universal than most (even conservative Christians) have imagined. | | | This book is, in my opinion, the best of the handful of books comparing Asian religions with the teachings of Jesus. | | | The book serves intelligently and effectively its purpose: to present to the conservative Christian an opening into mysticism in general (both western and eastern) and to the Tao Te Ching in particular. |

| | From a scholar's point of view, this TTC is unfaithful to the original text on more than one occasion, if not in every single line. | | | The three most important qualities in life are compassion, or showing kindness and mercy to others, moderation, or knowing what a thing is worth, and modesty, or knowing your place in the world. | | | Here was a book that managed to say with clarity what I'd been struggling to figure out about spirituality for several years. |

| | Hence those seeking the Tao have the happiness of attaining to the Tao; those seeking Virtue have the happiness of attaining to virtue; those seeking failure have the happiness of attaining to failure. | | | Therefore the Tao is great; Heaven is great; Earth is great; and the Sage is also great. | | | When there is not sufficient faith on his part, others will lack faith in him. |

| | Having spent my youth in Korea; being both Korean and Chinese with a twist of Japanese (Dad was born there and spent his childhood there); and having spent most of my life in America, I've enjoyed and found this translation of the Tao Te Ching to be enlightening. | | | I find it amazing that some occidental reviewers were able to attain such a clear grasp of the more literal translations where I could not (not only am I Asian-American, I have a very strong background in philosophy). | | | Even with my connections to the East, I've found reading other translations to be extremely difficult--they were all too literal. |

| | Panlatrevo -- Tao Te Ching |
| | The Tao of the Tao-te Ching has received a wide variety of interpretations because of its elusiveness and mystical overtones and has been a basic concept in both philosophy and religion. | | | The long tradition that Lao-tzu was the author of the Tao-te Ching was so badly shaken in the 19th century that some scholars even questioned the historical existence of the sage. | | | The popularity of the Tao-te Ching is reflected in the vast number of commentaries that have been written: over 350 have been preserved in Chinese, about 250 in Japanese. |

| | That would not be putting one's "person last." It would be a much more Taoist move to deny authorship and attribute the book to the "Old Master," which is what "Lao Tzu" means. | | | Verse 55: "He who shows himself is not conspicuous." The opposite of verse 50b. | | | Verse 106: "The further one goes/The less one knows." As in verse 108, knowledge is seen as a form of Doing. |
