【About Tao Te Ching】

Tao Te Ching, authored by Laozi ( 6th century BC), is comparatively well-known in the West and is one of the most translated texts in world literature.

It conveys the tremendous importance of non-doing psychologically, which is totally related to inner peace, clarity and compassion.

One common misconception is its association with Taoism, in fact, Taoism was invented by later generations after Laozi and based on the incomplete understanding of Tao Te Ching. Laozi is non-religious and non-sectarian and what he says is down-to-earth and practical.

These sessions on Tao Te Ching are educational, insightful and healing, which appeal to people from all walks of life.
