Chinesische Weisheiten: Tao Te King (Das Buch vom Sinn und Leben): Laozi: Daodejing

More about the book

The work serves as a foundational text of Daoism, emphasizing the dual concepts of Dao and De central to Laozi's worldview. It presents two ways to experience the Dao: through observation of the world's phenomena and through introspection and silence. Rich in nature and societal parables, it illustrates principles such as adaptability, the dangers of excess, and the constant change of the world governed by the law of opposites. The symbol of Taiji represents the unity of Yin and Yang, reflecting the core of Laozi's teachings from the 6th century B.C.
