"Now the Son of Man [i.e. a child of humanity] is glorified, and God is glorified in him." (John 13:31 NIV). (If you'll forgive me adopting Paramahansa Yogananda's tic of quoting the Bible.) I aspire to speak more of this-- perhaps later. ( ) walkthemoon89 | Apr 26, 2016 | It was also in poor taste that the author constantly used himself as an example of how the Dao should be enacted and never gave an example of his own failings. I'm going to go out on a limb here and make a bold assumption that the author (like the rest of us) is a human being; and therefore and made many mistakes and is in no way in any state of enlightenment. I didn't appreciate the loose references to god and heaven without clarifying the terms. People use these terms in many different ways and it seemed the author had no intention of specifying what he meant with his use of these very loaded terms. The author's continued worship of Lao Zi and his pretentious writings. After all, anyone who opens a book about the Dao with a statement that the Dao cannot be named or described could not have been too bright. Finally, the author constantly tried to deify the Dao by making it some kind of supernatural force. It most definitely is not. (  ) jimocracy | Apr 18, 2015 | ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Distinctions
Five hundred years before the birth of Jesus, a God-realized being named Lao-tzu in ancient China dictated 81 verses, which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of our existence. The classic text of these 81 verses, called the Tao Te Ching or the Great Way, offers advice and guidance that is balanced, moral, spiritual, and always concerned with working for the good. In this book, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer has reviewed hundreds of translations of the Tao Te Ching and has written 81 distinct essays on how to apply the ancient wisdom of Lao-tzu to today's modern world. This work contains the entire 81 verses of the Tao, compiled from Wayne's researching of 12 of the most well-respected translations of text that have survived for more than 25 centuries. Each chapter is designed for actually living the Tao or the Great Way today. Some of the chapter titles are "Living with Flexibility," "Living Without Enemies," and "Living by Letting Go." Each of the 81 brief chapters focuses on living the Tao and concludes with a section called "Doing the Tao Now." Wayne spent one entire year reading, researching, and meditating on Lao-tzu's messages, practicing them each day and ultimately writing down these essays as he felt Lao-tzu wanted you to know them. This is a work to be read slowly, one essay a day. As Wayne says, "This is a book that will forever change the way you look at your life, and the result will be that you'll live in a new world aligned with nature. Writing this book changed me forever, too. I now live in accord with the natural world and feel the greatest sense of peace I've ever experienced. I'm so proud to present this interpretation of the Tao Te Ching, and offer the same opportunity for change that it has brought me." No library descriptions found. |
