Publisher's Synopsis

Beginning with an eloquent discourse on the Chinese language, renowned advocate of Eastern philosophy Alan Watts goes on to describe the origins and essence of Taoist philosophy, as well as the concepts of wu wei-a natural or effortless action-and Te, the power that results thereof. Drawing on ancient and modern sources, this treatise gives the same careful attention to Tao that Zen Buddhism received in Watts's classic The Way of Zen. His sources include writings by Chinese philosophers Laozi and Zhuang Zi, as well as the I Ching and modern studies by scientist Joseph Needham, writer and inventor Lin Yutang, and sinologist Arthur Waley.

 

Comenzando con un discurso elocuente sobre el lenguaje chino, el respetado partidario de la filosofìa oriental Alan Watts procede a describir los orìgenes y la esencia de la filosofìa taoìsta, asì como los conceptos del wu wei-la acción natural o sin esfuerzo-y del te, el poder que emana de ello. Empleando fuentes antiguas y modernas, este tratado le presta la misma atención cuidadosa al Taoìsmo que el Budismo Zen recibió en la obra clásica de Watts El espìritu del Zen. Sus fuentes incluyen escritos por los filósofos chinos Lao-Tsé y Zhuangzi, además del I Ching y estudios modernos por el cientìfico Joseph Needman, el escritor e inventor Lin Yutang y el sinologista Arthur Waley.
