Features: The way is to return to simplicity. Chinese Taoist thought has a long history, nourishing our lives. The more prosperous, the more one retains their original nature. This book places Chinese Taoist thought in the context of ordinary life, extracting the philosophy of Laozi and Zhuangzi into 60 accessible and enjoyable principles through storytelling. It concretizes Taoist thought, transforming the mystical into tangible concepts that can be directly applied. The views in the book are half from Laozi and Zhuangzi, and half from the author's insights. In summary, this is a book that strongly advocates "retreating a step," as it has seen the abyss before and the grasslands behind. A horse does not leap into the abyss, and a dragon does not enter the fields—this is the path to transcendence. Where life should go, the reader will have their own measure.
