"Tao Te Ching" is one of the greatest masterpieces in Chinese history. It was written by Laozi, a thinker in the Spring and Autumn Period. It is one of the classic works of the Taoist school. The book has about 5,000 words and is divided into two parts: "Tao Jing" and "De Jing", hence the name "Tao Te Ching". Its content is profound and mysterious, taking "Tao" as the origin and law of all things in the universe, advocating ideas such as "governing by doing nothing", "the best is like water", "contentment without humiliation", "the weak prevails over the strong", etc. It emphasizes conforming to nature, advocating simplicity and opposing struggle. The version published this time is written in vernacular Chinese, so that even readers with zero basic knowledge can easily understand Laozi's wisdom.
"Tao Te Ching" is not only an important cornerstone of Chinese philosophy, but also has a profound impact on politics, military, self-cultivation, health and other fields. Its language is concise and full of dialectical wisdom. It is regarded as a treasure of Eastern culture and enjoys a high reputation around the world. It has been translated into many languages and is one of the earliest Chinese classics to enter the Western world.
Reader comments
Establish your body with gentleness and cultivate your mind with tranquility. Every word is wisdom in dealing with the world, and every sentence is life practice. It does not talk about utilitarianism or force, but only takes "Tao" as its root and "Virtue" as its basis. It teaches us to follow nature, keep our original intention, and find calmness and peace in the complicated world.

In the past few days, I wanted to read the original text and translated meanings of the Tao Te Ching, so I searched for no less than ten books on the platform, and read the translated meanings of the first chapter one by one, and finally chose this one. I just like this teacher's translation. I think the translation in this article is simple and easy to understand. The wording is careful and appropriate. It is very subtle. Very good. I like it very much! I looked for it on the written page and at the end of the book, but I couldn't find the name of the translation teacher. Thank you teacher! 🌷🌷
