 Exploring Tao with fun. Lots of
info and a great start to begin learning about Tao.
Though you have think, Tao is not as hard to grasp as we
Westerners make out. It is fluid and personal and
universal, and this site makes it as understandable as it
can be.
 A great book to get a fun overview
of Taoist philosophy. More than that it is a book that
makes you think as you laugh. You'll see yourself and
feel a bit lighter I think. Check out these excerpts.
 Well done site with great
features. I especially like the page with links to
specific subjects that Tao relates to, like leadership,
the Bible and more. There is a random Chapter generator,
a concepts page to help beginners, and much more.
