[Russian] - Tao Te Ching [Дао-Дэ-Цзин]

"'Дао-Дэ-Цзин' – 'Книга пути и достоинства' – классический даосский философский трактат, являющийся великим памятником китайской мысли. По числу переводов на иностранные языки 'Дао-Дэ-Цзин' уступает лишь Библии. Дао (кит. – путь) – одна из важнейших категорий китайской философии, интерпретированная даоссистами как нечто основополагающее всего мироздания и извечного порядка вещей. Как некий идеал существования всего на свете, к которому необходимо приблизиться человеку в своем существовании, познать Дао, чтобы постичь смысл, цель и счастье бытия."

Laozi (Author), Arkadii Bukhmin (Narrator)

Tao Te Ching (4th Century BCE)

"Tao Te Ching' is a foundational text of Taoism, attributed to the legendary sage Laozi. This ancient Chinese classic presents profound insights into the nature of existence, the principles of harmony, and the path to living in accordance with the Tao, or the Way. Composed of 81 short chapters, 'Tao Te Ching' offers poetic and enigmatic verses that invite deep contemplation. Laozi emphasizes the concept of Wu Wei (non-action), advocating for naturalness, simplicity, and alignment with the flow of the universe. The text delves into themes of humility, spontaneity, and the balance between opposites, such as yin and yang. Lionel Giles' translation, first published in 1904, brings the essence of Laozi's teachings to English-speaking readers, preserving the cryptic beauty and philosophical richness of the original text. 'Tao Te Ching' continues to inspire seekers of wisdom and seekers of spiritual enlightenment across cultures and generations."

Essentials of Daoism: Including: The Sayings of Lao Tzu, The Dao De Jing, Zhuangzi, Lieh Tzu, and Su

"This book comprises five classic works of Chinese mysticism. Culturally, these are the companion works to Confucius’ thoughts, as expanded by Mencius. Confucianism is very much the Apollonian side of Chinese culture. It focuses on matters of ethics, hierarchy, responsibility, and social obligation. Daoism is the other side of the coin, focused on abstraction and uncertainty. The two translators included in this volume were very different men. While they wrote in the same period, their audiences were distinct from one another, and this comes through in their differing approaches to the original texts they are working with. One was a missionary, looking to ensure that his fellow spreaders of the word could understand as completely and correctly as possible the culture that they had come into. The other was a curator at the British Museum, who popularized the first English translations for a thoroughly domestic market."

Tao Te Ching (Unabridged)

"This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. The Tao Te Ching, attributed to Laozi, is a foundational text of Taoism, offering a guide to living in harmony with the universe's natural order, the 'Tao.' It emphasizes simplicity, non-action (wu wei), and living in accordance with nature's flow. The text warns against forcing outcomes and suggests a more passive approach, finding balance and working with the natural flow of things. It encourages humility, compassion, and living in the present moment. Though short, the Tao Te Ching's cryptic verses have been interpreted and debated for centuries, offering a timeless perspective on navigating life's challenges and finding inner peace."

Tao Te Ching: The Way

"In eighty-one brief chapters, Lao-zi's Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, provides advice that imparts balance and perspective, a serene and generous spirit, and teaches us how to work for the good with the effortless skill that comes from being in accord with the Tao—the basic principle of the universe. The Tao Te Ching, Daodejing, or Dao De Jing is a Chinese classic text. According to tradition, it was written around the 6th century BC by the sage Laozi (or Lao Tzu, 'Old Master'), a record-keeper at the Zhou Dynasty court, by whose name the text is known in China. Laozi's work has been embraced by various anti-authoritarian movements as well as Chinese Legalism. The text is fundamental to both philosophical and religious Taoism and strongly influenced other schools, such as Legalism, Confucianism and Chinese Buddhism, which when first introduced into China was largely interpreted through the use of Daoist words and concepts. Laozi’s words speak directly to the heart with simple, direct and profound wisdom addressing the core principles of the art of living well. "
