Rooted in 4th century BC, this ancient Chinese spiritual text serves as a cornerstone of Taoist philosophy, contrasting sharply with Confucian ideals. Emphasizing a flexible approach to life, it encourages adaptation to nature's rhythms rather than strict adherence to rules. Attributed partly to Chuang Tzu, a minor official known for his eloquent prose, the work features humorous anecdotes and poetic reflections on the natural world. Its insights into human nature have influenced Zen Buddhism and continue to resonate with readers today. This edition includes a translation by Herbert A. Giles.
