Product Description
Synopsis
This explanation of Taoism avoids the use of Chinese and technical terms, even such well-known terms as yin and yang. Each meditation included in this book begins with a one-word title and its Chinese character, the number of the meditation, and a brief poetic aphorism. Each meditation illustrates a single Taoist principle in natural imagery. An appendix of months and days aids readers who want to read one prayer each day.
About the Author
Deng Ming-Dao is the author of ‘365 Tao’, ‘The Chronicles of Tao’, and ‘Scholar Warrior’. He studied with Taoist master Kwan Saihung for thirteen years.

Format:Paperback
This is quite simply one of the best books I have ever read. Someone bought this for me years ago and it has been at my side ever since. It serves equally as both an introduction to Tao or a daily companion to someone who is more versed in Taoist ways.
A delight to read, it will reveal more and more to the reader as their journey through life progresses. Some chapters I have read over and over through the years yet each time, because circumstances change, it always means something different to me.
Everyone should own this book!

365 Tao is an all embracing book, covering 365 daily meditations on Tao. It is presented in a straight forward manner relevant to today's busy life styles. I would recommend 365 Tao to anyone interested understanding themself(s) further and the world we live. Also, an excellent read.

Format:Paperback
This book gives a thoughtful reflection for each day of the year which reflects taoist ideals but does it in very modern language. Some observations made by the author can at times be quite shocking.
Even if you arent a Taoist you will enjoy the poetry which is to be found in this work. It is sure to become a classic.

This is one of those so-called words of wisdom books. The idea of this one is that you read a one page meditation evreyday for 365 days of the year. Read more
