Description

The Way of Nature: Understanding the Tao. Alan Watts, noted author and respected authority on Far Eastern thought, explores the concept of the Tao in this new book. Through meditation and writing, Watts delves into the philosophy of the Tao, offering a practical and esoteric path to liberation from cultural limitations. At its core, the Tao is about understanding our place within the natural world. It's a way of living that encourages us to swim with the current, split wood along the grain, and seek to understand human nature rather than change it. This ancient philosophy has its roots in pre-Dynastic China and offers profound implications for modern societies. The word Tao means both a path and the nature of the universe. It's a way to experience freedom and find our inner path - or Tao.
