5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Cross Section of Taoist Writings, April 25, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Spirit of Tao (Shambhala Pocket Classics) (Paperback)
Of all the sections, the individual stories are the best. For the uninitiated, the stories are probably the most interesting. For the mature practitioner, there is reinforcement of one's understanding. So the book appeals to variety of perceptive angles, any one of which provide a reflection of reality, to one degree or another. What struck me was the amazing cognizance of the authors from so many distant centuries ago, their writings reverberating even today. Cleary must have shook his head in wonder as he translated the writings.
