This small book (81 brief chapters) was written around 2600 years ago by the great Chinese Philosopher (and founder of Taoism) Lao Tzu (Laozi).

Some say that it was written as a guide for leaders to govern but it is also used to guide our own lives into being more in harmony with the way things are.

A great guide and intro to Taoism created by Italian Philosopher Daniele Bolelli can be found here…

“Governing a large country is like frying a small fish. You spoil it with too much poking. ”
