About this listen

The Sayings of Lao Tzu is a collection of wisdom attributed to Lao Tzu, the ancient Chinese philosopher and founder of Taoism. The text emphasizes harmony with the Tao (the Way), advocating simplicity, humility, and non-resistance. It teaches that true strength lies in flexibility, softness overcomes hardness, and wisdom comes from observing nature. Lao Tzu encourages letting go of desires, avoiding excessive control, and embracing the flow of life. He warns against pride, greed, and force, promoting balance and effortless action (Wu Wei). His sayings offer profound insights into leadership, self-cultivation, and the natural order, guiding readers toward peace and enlightenment. - Summary by Dream AudioBooksCopyright Dream audio books Art Literary History & Criticism
