The Tao of Happiness

Stories from Chuang Tzu for Your Spiritual Journey

De: Derek Lin

Narrado por: Sean Pratt

If you have not encountered Chuang Tzu before, prepare yourself for a treat. He was the sage who stood apart from all others in Chinese history. He was a unique presence, a great mind like no one before or since. Chuang Tzu quickly distinguished himself and became well known for his deep understanding and sense of humor. His mastery was such that he could explain the Tao with simple stories, and his humor was such that he could see the joy in ordinary things. He taught his students about "carefree wandering" - the path of moving through life with a free and happy heart, regardless of how turbulent the journey might be. It is time for modern listeners to join in on the fun.

Chuang Tzu's wisdom is not just for Eastern culture but for all of humanity. We may not have the instability or the clash of massive armies indicative of Chuang Tzu's time, but we have a lot of stress and tension in our modern world. Many of us find ourselves fighting little battles on the personal front just to get through the day. We can benefit greatly from Chuang Tzu's teachings. These parables are presented throughout this audiobook and juxtaposed with the charming and intelligent prose of modern-day Taoist teacher and author Derek Lin. Together, Chuang Tzu and Lin will present you with simple lessons that will have a lasting impact on your life.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A practical, systematic approach to the ancient and time-honored spiritual learning process. Using the same format that made The Tao of Daily Life a breakout Eastern wisdom best seller, Lin draws on the power of Taoist stories to illustrate important keys, or lessons." ( Taoism)

Incredible

Very pleased with everything about this book. It is a definite relisten and had expanded my understanding of cultivating the Tao. Did know what to expect and got a lot more than I expected. Highly recommended.

Great insights on Chuang Tzu

I’ve read a lot of Chuang Tzu before but this book had so many fresh takes on his parables. I loved every second of it from start to finish.

read it and apply the teaching

love it, just read it. every day life lessons. must read. very insightful and easy to understand

Great Tao Primer!

I have been studying the Tao for about 10 years or longer. I am constantly learning more and more with each book I read, audiobook I listen to, or Tao Master I meet. This book offers yet another aspect of The Tao which I haven’t experienced! The stories are wonderful, and the messages iconic. Will listen again and again during my walks with my dog Dusty!

Tao of happiness

Derek Lin provides some fantastic insightful and practical perspectives of Taoism. His thoughtful, concise, and easy flow of principles gives a person the opportunity to go beyond dryness of philosophy. Thanks for sharing your spirituality.

Brilliant!

I thouroughly enjoyed this book. Great narrator and wonderful interpretation. I look forward to hearing the other stories.

Timeless Wisdom

Deep wisdom, enjoyed profoundly, but again what Chuang Tsu expressed metaphorically can only be best understood, experienced and enjoyed when living life with Tao becomes an integral part of you, then every word of such sages is only a reflection of your own being and you enjoy seeing your own reflection which is full of beauty. The Tao is nothing but all pervading power of Divine love and we can feel it by awakening the inner energy within us all.

Recommendation

I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this book. though my Affinity is for Eastern philosophy especially Chinese. there are some very good anecdotes and essays to ponder on. I will be sitting down to re-listen with pen and paper so I can paraphrase and further comprehended this fantastic material.

SUCH WISDOM

I HIGHLY recommend getting this book.
So much wisdom, I was sorry when I came to the end and I will certainly listen to this book again and again.
The narrator, Sean Pratt, as usual is a pleasure to listen to.
My thanks to all involved, JK.
