Awakening to the Tao (Shambhala Classics)

This collection of 142 meditations on the Tao by Liu I-ming, an 18th-century Taoist adept, offers a unique and powerful approach to achieving success in all aspects of life.

Using natural and mythical phenomena, Liu illustrates the principles and practice of the Tao in everyday language, making it accessible and applicable to readers from diverse backgrounds.

The meditations not only provide practical wisdom but also awaken us to the basic wisdom of our own religion, showing us how to make it the whole of our life.

With Thomas Cleary's excellent translation, this book is highly recommended for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Tao and its application in modern times.
