Secret Teachings of the Tao Te Ching by Mantak Chia and Tao Huang

Mantak Chia and Tao Huang explore the Tao Te Ching through interpretation, meditation and practical illustrations. Their approach connects Lao Tzu’s verses with Taoist inner cultivation and the relationship between Tao and Te.

The book includes Tao Huang’s translation from the Mawangdui text and considers the teachings in relation to personal practice. For readers interested in an experiential Taoist commentary, rather than only a stand-alone translation. Spiritual ideas about longevity and inner alchemy are presented as traditional teachings, not medical guarantees.
