Tao Te Ching: A New English Version by Laozi

5.0

I actually listened to the audio book version of Tao Te Ching after hearing it mentioned on the Sword and Laser podcast. With an hour drive into work, an audio book can have a crucial impact on my commute. At first the delivery is a little hard to adapt to in that it flows much like the Tao principle. Letting your mind wander for a moment tends to lose the momentum. While read in a leisurely pace, the concepts of Tao Te Ching all tended to make me drift into introspection. There was quite a bit of turning off my radio so that I could let myself catch up.

I really enjoyed the Tao Te Ching; however, I think that this would be best enjoyed in written form. I plan to put it into my list of books that I read over and over again. There is so much to digest in the wisdom of this translation, and I think that each reading will provide more insight.
