This book interprets the Tao Te Ching from the perspective of
personal cultivation. The Tao Te Ching of Lao Tzu is regarded as
one of the greatest books of wisdom ever written in history, but
few can grasp what it says in entirety. Embedded in each of its
5,000 Chinese characters are highly profound messages. Master Sim
Pooh Ho is a Tai Chi Master and the leader of a Tai Chi lineage
that traces back centuries. In his book Decoding the Tao Te Ching,
he combines the ancestral teachings of Tai Chi with his practice
and provides readers with unique insights into Lao Tzu's ancient
book.The Tao Te Ching is difficult to comprehend because many of
the concepts it introduces are elusive. What is Tao and Te, being
and non-being or yin and yang? The concepts, however, are
discernible in Tai Chi because they are what make the practice
work. Decoding the Tao Te Ching is written in a simple manner by a
Tai Chi master, and translated in an accessible way by his senior
disciple Tekson TEO, thus making it an enlightening read to all
English readers interested in this topic.

The Holy Quran presents an irrefutable basis and belief system for
the establishment of a stable and harmonious life in this world,
and a triumphant return to Paradise in the Next. There are
misunderstandings about the very source-springs of human well-being
the belief in the spiritual realities of existence, the infinite
love for the Holy Messenger, and the unity regarding the
implementation of the divinely revealed programme for human
society.Young people all over the world, Muslim as well as
non-Muslim, are brought up and educated in an environment permeated
by scientific materialism. It is modern learning which programmes
their minds and causes them to reject anything they find
incompatible with what they have been taught about man and life on
the earth. This book will clarify the misunderstandings and
confusions about Islamic spirituality on scientific
grounds.Scientific orthodoxy refers to magnetic sensitivity in
human beings, electromagnetic energies that permeate our
atmosphere, the flow of positive and negative ions in the
atmosphere affecting human brain activity, the function of the
pineal gland and many other empirical sources of transcendent
experience that are yet to be investigated. This magnetic energy
basis of spiritual experience, which the scientific camp has been
forced into revealing, has proved to be a welcome development of
modern science from the point of view of Islamic spirituality.The
younger generation of modern times will have their belief
reconfirmed by the study of the scientific facts cited in this
book. The scientific reality of Islamic spirituality is
demonstrated beyond any reasonable doubt.
