About this listen

The book contains the most interesting and important 37 chapters of the 81 in the Tao Te Ching. The selected chapters cover Lao Tzu's philosophical and spiritual concepts. The chapters not selected are mostly political and social.
This version stays close to the original text of the Tao Te Ching. The goal is to convey Lao Tzu's thoughts clearly and coherently. No added comments or notes are necessary.
This translation actually is new, written in 2020. The language is idiomatic American english.

People say my Tao teaching is great, but it’s strange.
Being strange is what makes it great.

If it’s familiar, it’s not worth much.

- Lao Tzu, chapter 67
