Lao Tzu's writings are now in audio format!

Lao Tzu's "Book of the Way of Life", called in Chinese "Tao Te Ching", is second only to the Bible in terms of foreign translations in the world . The origin of this audiobook and the identity of its author are shrouded in many legends, about which the famous translator Vladimir Malyavin tells in detail in his preface. The very word "tao" means the path, and, moreover, at the same time the path of the universe, life and human perfection. And “de” is the inner fullness of life, invisibly, but firmly binding all living things. The main secret of Lao Tzu seems paradoxical: in order to become yourself, you need to eliminate your private "I" | to have power one must not desire it, and so on. And the secret of reading Lao Tzu is to comprehend the inner depth of meaning that wisdom inspires, revealing a different and opposite meaning in each judgment.

The audiobook "Books on the Way of Life" will be fruitless if it does not reveal the uselessness of abstract ideas does not lead to a revolution in the very way of perceiving the world.
