The Tao Te Ching is one of the world’s longest surviving wisdom texts. R Lewis Cordell, author of New School, Chasing Excellence, translates the The Tao Te Ching for the teacher who seeks to walk the path of learning and to travel the way of the masterful teacher. This book has only three things to teach: Simplicity, Patience, Compassion. This translation was penned as the author prepared to begin his thirtieth year as a teacher. The wisdom of The Tao applies to people of all ages and walks of life.
