Publisher's Synopsis
Perhaps the most deeply influential spiritual text in human history, Tao Consciousness reveals the long-lost source of Taoist philosophy and meditation practices.
This is the ancient Taoist teaching that eventually developed into Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching and many other Taoist classics. Tao Consciousness now stands aside the Tao Te Ching as a founding classic of Taoism. This new translation, by Greg Leveille, is based on the original Taoist tablets created in 5000 BCE. It makes this ancient wisdom and poems come alive for contemporary readers and spiritual seekers. This is a story about the oldest spiritual teachings and meditation methods ever practiced. This amazing book also provides practical self-help advice and motivational poetry for modern students on how to live and practice Taoist meditation. Greg Leveille provides in-depth advice on how to cultivate and live a Taoist, Wu Wei lifestyle. His rare chapter on the Memoirs of a Taoist Sage, gives us an extraordinary view of what's it like to experience the challenges and the miracles of a modern Taoist mystic. The renowned Taoist expert and author, William Gladstone, said that "As magnificent and powerful as the Tao Te Ching is, Tao Consciousness is even more profound."
