Of course as time goes by new resources and books are added to my library collection. Someone always fine-tuning my direction, remaining humble, and knowing there is much more I have to learn.The fifty two resources below represent the most extensive list of book I have read and studied over the years.The number fifty two is significant to me personally because I was born in the Year if the Dragon, the 1952, and there are fifty two weeks in the year, meaning I can focus on one each week of year.

Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.I am often asked about my sources and how others can lean more about Taoism and Chinese history and philosophy. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Simple commentary accompanies the text, and the introduction provides further historical and interpretative context. This new translation draws on the latest archaeological finds and brings out the word play and poetry of the original. It enables the individual, and society as a whole, to harmonize the disparate demands of daily life and achieve a more profound level of understanding. A life-giving stream, the Way gives rise to all things and holds them in her motherly embrace. The dominant image is of the Way, the mysterious path through the whole cosmos modelled on the great Silver River or Milky Way that traverses the heavens. It encapsulates the main tenets of Daoism, and upholds a way of being as well as a philosophy and a religion. 'Of ways you may speak, but not the Perennial Way By names you may name, but not the Perennial Name.' The best-loved of all the classical books of China and the most universally popular, the Daodejing or Classic of the Way and Life-Force is a work that defies definition.
