Tao Te Ching: A Book about the Way and the Power of the Way by Lao -. Tzu, Ursula K. Le Guin

5.0
Great eastern philosophy literature, very poetic and invites the reader to grasp the meaning of every word. The content is general and full of quotable lines. You may have to read each page or the book more than once, and the meaning you will interpret will be different each time.

if i wasn’t muslim, id become a taoist monk. kidding, this book wasn’t as enlightening as i’d hoped and some of it felt like forced “wisdom” but alas maybe i’m not the target audience. some of it felt like it completely contradicted with other parts of it which is not very ying and yang if you ask me. I did like a lot of the quotes however, and i definitely think taoism is a pretty timeless philosophy. fortunately though, the quran solos.

An okay introduction, though made the book sounded more Alan Watts-like than it is supposed to be. The notes doesn't give much helpful intellectual context, and painted more of the translator than the Great Book itself. Might need some other edition for that. Still, okay as an introduction.
