For more than two millennia, the Dao De Jing has offered glimpses of a harmonious way of living, yet its deepest meaning remains elusive. Awareness Is the Way proposes that the Dao is not an abstract principle but the fundamental awareness shared by all beings.
This book presents a fresh translation of the ancient text alongside a contemplative meditation on its message. It traces the ancient text in four dimensions of the Way:
- the way of the Constancy—Dao itself—the Source—the Nonbeing from which all beings arise;
- the way of the universe, unfolding in accordance with Dao;
- the way of the true leader, who governs through Nondoing;
- and the way of a great country, guided by such leadership.
Ultimately, the book suggests the greatest obstacle to a harmonious life is not ignorance but intellect itself. When striving falls away, Awareness carries us effortlessly along the Way.
