This is an automatically translated description

The Tao Te Ching, the Book of the Way and the Dignity, is the main source of teaching and one of the most prominent monuments of Chinese thought, which has had a huge impact on the culture of China and the whole world. The main idea of this work - the concept of Tao - is interpreted as a natural state of affairs that does not imply outside interference, because it is the «heavenly will» or «pure nothingness».

In ancient Chinese, this work by Lao Tzu is considered poetry, but this translation is adapted (which is a rarity!) for the modern reader.

Translated from the traditional Chinese by Irina Kostanda.
