Description
The Tao: the Watercourse Way by Alan Watts and Al Chung-liang Huang This book explores the Chinese philosophy of Tao, which is about living in harmony with the natural world. Alan Watts examines the history of Tao and its interpretations by key thinkers, including Lao-Tzu, author of the influential Tao Te Ching. Watts shows how the ancient wisdom of Tao can help us change our attitude to life and find a more balanced way of living. By studying Tao, we can learn to quiet our minds and observe the world around us, rather than trying to control it. This approach can be a powerful way to reduce stress and find inner peace. Watts draws on both ancient and modern sources to provide a comprehensive understanding of Tao and its relevance to modern life. This book is a thought-provoking exploration of a timeless and universal philosophy that can help us live more in harmony with ourselves and the world around us.
