The Tao Te Ching, Daodejing, Dao De Jing, or Daode jing, also simply referred to as the Laozi, is a Chinese classic text.

Der aus China stammende Taoismus zählt zu den großen Weisheitstraditionen dieser Welt. Er ist einerseits Philosophie, wird aber auch als Chinas eigene und authentisch chinesische Religion angesehen. Seine Ursprünge gehen zurück bis ins 6. Jh. v. Chr., als die beiden Haupt-Schriften des Taoismus entstanden, das Tao Te King und das Zhuangzi. In ihnen wird das Wesen des Taoismus in oft erstaunlichen Parabeln, Geschichten und Anekdoten erläutert. Die beiden Werke führten zu den beiden Strömungen im Taoismus, die später zusammengefasst wurden und für viele praktizierende Taoisten heute eine Einheit darstellen. Das vorliegende Hörbuch enthält Texte aus beiden Strömungen, wobei die spirituellen Aspekte, die für uns Menschen im Westen vertraut klingen, im Mittelpunkt stehen.
