This book, in my opinion, is the best introduction to early Taoism. It is available on Amazon (in Kindle, paperback, and hardcover) here. It includes a translation of Lao-Tzu’s Tao Te Ching.

Here is the ‘blurb’ on Amazon…

In ‘Sitting with Lao Tzu’, you will discover:

• What it means to return to our Source, and how to do it.
• How to live a truly authentic life.
• How we are connected to all things.
• How to stop striving and relax into the present moment.
• How to trust the universe and act without forcing things.
• What true wisdom is, and how to be truly wise.
• How to bring awareness of the Tao into our daily lives.
• How to reclaim our original simplicity.

Beaulac is obviously indebted to Alan Watts (see my previous post).
