I've heard of taoism but I've never really looked into it until today. Bless the coli
I think I really like not only the format but the author's constant reassurance that this ain't really supposed to be that hard. Definitely a very captivating read

This little book has so much wisdom that I pick up as I go through different phases of my life.

Here's a good translation:

I wish I was on the coli when this thread was made the Tao Te Ching is one of the greatest books ever written in my opinion you guys should check out the Zhuangzhi tho too the guy who wrote it was Lao Tzu's master and it was wrote before the Tao Te Ching it goes deeper into the philosophy of Inaction and Taoism with parables and stories that are entertaining but have a profound message
