The enduring wisdom of the Tao Te Ching can become a companion
for your own spiritual journey.
Reportedly written by a sage named Lao Tzu over 2,500 years ago,
the Tao Te Ching is one of the most succinct and yet among the most
profound spiritual texts ever written. Short enough to read in an
afternoon, subtle enough to study for a lifetime, the Tao Te Ching
distills into razor-sharp poetry centuries of spiritual inquiry
into the Tao the "Way" of the natural world around us that reveals
the ultimate organizing principle of the universe.
Derek Lin's insightful commentary, along with his new
translation from the original Chinese a translation that sets a
whole new standard for accuracy will inspire your spiritual journey
and enrich your everyday life. It highlights the Tao Te Ching s
insights on simplicity, balance, and learning from the paradoxical
truths you can see all around you: finding strength through
flexibility (because bamboo bends, it is tough to break); achieving
goals by transcending obstacles (water simply flows around rocks on
its way to the sea); believing that small changes bring powerful
results (a sapling, in time, grows into a towering tree).
Now you can experience the wisdom and power of Lao Tzu s words
even if you have no previous knowledge of the Tao Te Ching.
SkyLight Illuminations provides insightful yet unobtrusive
commentary that describes helpful historical background, explains
the Tao Te Ching s poetic imagery, and elucidates the ancient
Taoist wisdom that will speak to your life today and energize your
spiritual quest."

A modern book of destiny and power, using the ancient principles of
the Tao Te Ching.
How do we begin to discover and live our destined life? How can we
use the ancient, Eastern philosophy to experience more success in
our lives?
From Derek Lin, Taoist master and author of "The Tao of Daily
Life," comes this practical, systematic approach to the ancient and
time-honored spiritual learning process. The Tao of Success
navigates the five rings of life, which are common patterns of
traditional Tao cultivation, conceptualized by the ancient sages:
your spirit, your mind, your relationships, your world, and your
destiny. Success is achieved by discovering and experiencing these
five concentric rings, from the inside out, and not in the future
but in the here and now.
Using the same format that made "The Tao of Daily Life" a breakout
Eastern wisdom bestseller, Lin draws on the power of Taoist stories
to illustrate important keys, or lessons. He then offers commentary
on understanding and applying that story in modern life-all aimed
to help readers live out the destiny that lies within themselves.
By integrating the life-altering lessons of this book into their
busy lives, readers can begin to cultivate the Tao. In "The Tao of
Success," Lin returns with his enlightening approach to
understanding, centered on story and illumination of ancient Taoist
secrets for the modern beginner and the familiar student alike.
'The Tao of Joy Every Day' contains Taoist sayings, wisdom, and
stories all designed to bring awareness and understanding of what
makes our lives meaningful, especially in a world that seems
hurried and crazed.
