"The
Tao that can be spoken of is not the real Way" reads a famous line from the
Tao-te
Ching.
But although the Tao cannot be described in words, words can convey a fleeting
glimpse of that mysterious source of life. Here, in miniature, is a beginner's
entrée into the vast treasury of the Taoist canon: the shamanic songs
that are the roots of Taoism; the
Tao-te
Ching,
Chuang-tzu,
and
Lieh-tzu;
stories of Taoist immortals and magicians, and guidelines on meditation and
methods of longevity. This is an abridgement of Eva Wong's
Teachings
of the Tao.
