Lao Shu

Bag om Lao Shu

Lao Shu is the sequel to The Sage's Way, a book that has become a classic on Taoism since its 2004 publication. In Lao Shu, the enigmatic hunchback called Old Shu is acknowledged as The Mysterious Sage of Mount Shan, and 56 of his teachings - with subjects ranging from Acceptance and Aging to Words and Yielding - have been authenticated, compiled and oered for study and contemplation through the diligence of the monks at the Kai-tung Monastery. Unlike most other books on Taoism, Lao Shu is written as it would be experienced from inside the tradition, not as described from outside it. As such, readers are taken much deeper into the sophisticated and nuanced wisdom that has infused, informed and guided the Chinese culture for 2,500 years, and has intrigued the West for centuries. For the author, Lao Shu is the creative culmination of more than 50 years of exploring and explaining the essence of this elusive and timeless Taoist wisdom. In Lao Shu, such wisdom is provided directly through the recorded teachings of an imagined Taoist sage.
