    Tao Té Ching is ancient China’s great contribution to the literature of philosophy, religion, and mysticism.
    Tao Té Ching contains the time-honored teachings of Taoism and brings a message of living simply, finding contentment with a minimum of comfort, and prizing culture above all else.

    This is the lauded translation of the eighty-one poems constituting an Eastern classic, the mystical and moral teachings of which have profoundly influenced the sacred scriptures of many religions—and the lives and happiness of countless men and women through the centuries.

    Translated and with an Introduction by R. B. Blakney
    and an Afterword by Richard John Lynn
    Lao Tzu, whose name means "Old Master," was a contemporary of Confucius in the sixth century B.C.E. and the founder of the philosophical tradition of Taoism. View titles by Lao Tzu
