Synopsis
Five hundred years before the birth of Jesus, a God-realized being named Lao-tzu in ancient China dictated 81 verses, which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of our existence. The classic text of these 81 verses, called the Tao Te Ching or the Great Way, offers advice and guidance that is balanced, moral, spiritual, and always concerned with working for the good.In this book, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer has reviewed hundreds of translations of the Tao Te Ching and has written 81 distinct essays on how to apply the ancient wisdom of Lao-tzu to today's modern world. This work contains the entire 81 verses of the Tao, compiled from Wayne's researching of 12 of the most well-respected translations of text that have survived for more than 25 centuries. Each chapter is designed for actually living the Tao or the Great Way today. Some of the chapter titles are "Living with Flexibility," "Living Without Enemies," and "Living by Letting Go." Each of the 81 brief chapters focuses on living the Tao and concludes with a section called "Doing the Tao Now." Wayne spent one entire year reading, researching, and meditating on Lao-tzu's messages, practicing them each day and ultimately writing down these essays as he felt Lao-tzu wanted you to know them.This is a work to be read slowly, one essay a day. As Wayne says, "This is a book that will forever change the way you look at your life, and the result will be that you'll live in a new world aligned with nature. Writing this book changed me forever, too. I now live in accord with the natural world and feel the greatest sense of peace I've ever experienced. I'm so proud to present this interpretation of the Tao Te Ching, and offer the same opportunity for change that it has brought me.", Five hundred years before the birth of Jesus, a God-realized being named Lao-tzu in ancient China dictated 81 verses, which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of our existence.

Life changing
This book has helped me in all aspects of my life. It allows you to see things in a different light which allowed me to be more like the person I want to be and the person I was born to be. Dr. Wayne Dyer presents the Tao te Ching in a way that it speaks to anyone who will listen. I have read the book from cover to cover but now I just randomly open it to a verse, read it, and make an effort to apply it to my life. I recommend it for anyone who could use some guidance in their everyday life.

AN HONEST, EYE-OPENING LOOK AT HOW OUR THOUGHTS DECEIVE US
I enjoyed the book immensely. Dr Wayne Dyer is one of my favorite authors. His books changed my life in more ways than one.

It is striking me more and more that what we think, even when we "talk to ourselves" is very important.
After misplacing the first copy, I had to have another copy of the book to finish reading it. Finding another one here on Ebay, was nice, as I can now finish the book, and keep it for reference.

Confusing but compelling
Seems like a good concept but the time it takes to truly read, understand and apply is not conducive to my life at the moment. Need to switch to a quieter lifestyle I guess

Over the four decades of his career, he wrote more than 40 books (21 of which became New York Times bestsellers), created numerous audio programs and videos, and appeared on thousands of television and radio shows. His books Manifest Your Destiny, Wisdom of the Ages, There’s a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem, and the New York Times bestsellers 10 Secrets for Success and Inner Peace, The Power of Intention, Inspiration, Change Your Thoughts—Change Your Life, Excuses Begone!, Wishes Fulfilled, and I Can See Clearly Now were all featured as National Public Television specials. Wayne held a doctorate in educational counseling from Wayne State University, had been an associate professor at St. John’s University in New York, and honored a lifetime commitment to learning and finding the Higher Self. In 2015, he left his body, returning to Infinite Source to embark on his next adventure
