Résumé

Taoist author, William Martin offers daily reflections of life as reflected in Lao-Tzu's classic book of wisdom. Each day begins with a few lines from The Tao Te Ching in Martin's own translation, followed by a short poetic reflection and a question for reflection. "It is not a devotional book, " Martin says, "because the Tao does not need devotion. It flows through us every moment whether we are aware of it or not.
Actually it IS us."The book offers 350 days of reflections. "The other two weeks of the year are for the reader to put words aside, " says Martin. The conviction that too many words make for confusion rather than clarity is central to the Taoist approach to literature. The simple verses in this book offer a opening to Life Itself - that which is real, rather than conceptual.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de William Martin

I have taken a winding road that has led me straight to the present moment. I have, over the years, worn the labels of, "Christian, Buddhist, and Taoist." I have followed careers called, "Scientist, Minister, Therapist, Writer, and Painter."I have two children by my first marriage. Lara and John are delightful people and bring me much joy. I have three grandchildren, Jillian, Andrew, and Emma - all of whom likewise delight me.
I have been married to Nancy for 27 years now and she is the mate of my heart and I cherish my life with her. Nancy and I now live in the mountains of Northern California, near the sacred Mount Shasta. We are deeply grateful to that dear Mountain for allowing us to live at her feet. I write these words at the age of 72 years and I sense that I am in the most creative, generative, and in many ways, powerful time of my life.
I write, publish, paint, drum, dance, walk in the forests, and celebrate my life. All of my electronic editions are available at Smashwords. I hope you enjoy them. My personal website site https://www.williammartin.org
