A taoista gondolkodók műveiben minduntalan visszatérő motívum, hogy amikor valamelyik tanítvány a mestertől azt kérdezi, mi a tao, a mester mély hallgatásba merül. Mikor a tanítvány figyelmezteti, hogy mit kérdezett, a másik így szól: hiszen a mester megmondta, a tao annyi mint hallgatni. De nem csak ezt jelenti, hanem azt is, hogy nem cselekedni, nem törekedni, nem tevékenykedni, hanem lenni. A tao annyi, mint a földi lét minden mulandó esetlegességét levetni, és a változatlan, örök Nagy Lét békéjét elérni.

Zen and Tao, A Little Book on Buddhist Though and Meditation is really not a short audiobook. It is a collection of Buddhist quotes, thoughts, and meditations from the school of Zen and the Tao.

Defeat and joy, struggle and serenity, fear and confidence, the emotions that arise in the practice of sports make it a fitting paradigm for life as a whole. In this unique work, Bob Mitchell looks at the mysteries and challenges of the Game and what it has to teach us. He makes a compelling comparison between the experience of participating in sports and the effortless action that lies at the heart of the Tao. The result is a highly practical and imaginative work that is part philosophy, part poetry, part common sense.

The Art of Stopping Time guides the listener through 100 practices to help busy people practice mindfulness and a slowing of time wherever they might be: in the shower, sitting in traffic, or dealing with an overflowing inbox. Our perception of the scarcity of time is coupled with the epidemic of stress in the modern world, and when we don't have a positive connection with the flow of time, we lack purpose as well as develop health problems.

This book details the history, rituals, and beliefs of the major traditional religions of China: universal animism, polydemonism, specters, ancestral worship, Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. He thought that one spiritual essence could be detected beneath a great variety of religious, philosophical, and even political expressions in China, and his lifework was the discovery and exposition of that essence.

The Tao Te Ching has a long and complex textual history. Known versions and commentaries date back two millennia, including ancient bamboo, silk, and paper manuscripts discovered in the 20th century. The Tao Te Ching is a fundamental text for both philosophical and religious Taoism. The name Tao Teo Ching translates into English as The Book of the Way and of Virtue.

Ontdek de tijdloze wijsheid van het Oosten in 'Tao Te Ching', het diepgaande meesterwerk van Lao Tzu. Deze filosofische gids, meer dan twee millennia geleden geschreven, blijft een baken van verlichting en overstijgt de grenzen van tijd en cultuur. Op de pagina's van dit transformerende boek nodigt Lao Tzu lezers uit op een diepgaande reis naar zelfontdekking en harmonie met de natuurlijke wereld. De 'Tao', wat 'de Weg' betekent, vat de essentie van het bestaan samen en leidt ons om de stroom van het leven te omarmen en balans te vinden in de steeds veranderende stromingen.

Translations of the famous Way and Virtue (Dao De Jing/Tao Te Ching) focus on the poetics and depth of the original. In contrast, Giles’ translation focuses on telling stories with the text, drawing out the nuances in a way that is more familiar to Western audiences from philosophical and religious texts.

Беседы Ошо по историям Чжуан-цзы — это размышления о разных способах поиска своего настоящего "Я". Как известно, многие мистики, стремящиеся к просветлению, сначала терпели неудачу. Они работали над собой днем и ночью, непрестанно медитировали, практиковались — и вновь терпели поражение. Но когда они уже совсем отчаивались и отбрасывали усилия, просветление приходило к ним само собой...Чжуан-цзы, основатель даосизма, говорит, что только так мы можем познать самих себя — не прилагая усилий.

Верили ли вы когда-нибудь в невозможное? Надеялись ли на то, чего быть не может? Если нет, то сейчас для этого самое время. В своей книге Ошо рассказывает о простом способе найти тропинку к сокровищам своей истинной сущности – о древней тибетской мантре, с помощью которой искатели по всему миру находили Истину. Даже те, кто уже отчаялся познать смысл жизни и научиться медитировать, достигали успеха с помощью этой загадочной мантры. "Ом Мани Падме Хум" — одна из самых красивых мантр, описывающих Запредельное. Она означает "звук тишины, алмаз в лотосе"", - говорит Ошо.

Трактат Дао Дэ Цзин – это уникальный памятник человеческой мысли, заложивший основу даосизма.

В сборник также вошли статьи Кониси, которые помогут читателю раскрыть суть учения Лао-цзы, и афоризмы древнекитайского мыслителя, переведенные Львом Николаевичем Толстым.

Carl Gustav Jung è da ritenersi non solo uno storico psichiatra e psicoanalista ma anche e soprattutto un grandissimo studioso delle culture e filosofie orientali. Se vogliamo, in tal senso, fu un vero e proprio precursore rispetto al crescente interesse verso dottrine tanto antiche quanto affascinanti, quali lo Yoga, il Tao e lo Zen. Il suo interesse per le filosofie orientali era quasi un'ossessione.

The Tao Te Ching is a Chinese classic text traditionally credited to the 6th-century BC sage Lao Tzu. The text's authorship, date of composition, and date of compilation are debated. The Tao Te Ching, along with the Zhuangzi, is a fundamental text for both philosophical and religious Taoism. It also strongly influenced other schools of Chinese philosophy and religion, including Legalism, Confucianism, and Buddhism, which was largely interpreted through the use of Taoist words and concepts when it was originally introduced to China.

Have you ever wondered what it means to be a Taoist? Have you already read some books on Taoism and wonder where you should go next? Are you looking to better your life? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this book is for you. This book expands upon many Taoist ideals and explains more about Lao Tzu's belief system.

Den klassisk kinesiske visdomsbog "Daode jing" fra 500 år f.v.t. er en rå og æggende, modsigelsesfuld og samtidig krystalklar beskrivelse af kunsten at leve livet. I 2500 år har den udfordret og henrykket læsere. Den er desuden et af de vigtigste kildeskrifter for daoismen. Ny, revideret oversættelse af Hugo Hørlych Karlsen. "Den mest kærlige af alle de store klassiske tekster ... Af alle dybe ting i verden er denne bog det klareste og mest friske vand. For mig er den også den dybeste kilde." Ursula K.

Lao Zi is believed to have been born in 604, during the Chou Dynasty. Little is known of his life and there is some speculation that he was mythical.

L'entità suprema, il principio cosmico preesistente all'Universo da cui tutto deriva e a cui tutto ritorna: questo è il dao, l'Assoluto, la Via per entrare in sintonia con la natura e le sue leggi, superando ogni dicotomia tra bene e male, vita e morte. Sul suo culto si fonda il daoismo, movimento filosofico e religioso basato sulle polarità yin e yang e la conciliazione degli opposti, teso da un lato a svelare i misteri della natura e dall'altro a consentire all'uomo di raggiungere l'integrità psico-fisica.
